JANUARY 2013 :  Year of Natural Scotland

We are taking a break now to recharge our batteries and catch up on paper work.

dolphin again







David Philip photographer was with us this week and what a week, great weather and lots of wildlife. The Corry was giving some great swirls as conditions were calm and we finally got Julie from Ardfern shop out on her birthday although she stayed in the wheelhouse while we went through the whirlpools with a slightly nervous look on her face as she had never been to the Gulf in all the years she has been in Ardfern





David got a great stag shot on Jura and this bottlenose dolphin in the Dorus Mor

otter



We have been seeing this otter on a regular basis at the north end of Jura, although there are plenty about they are shy and hard to spot but this one seems to be getting used to the boat and is not bothered when we turn up, will try to get some more close up shots in the coming days, David Philip is with us this week with his big lens so will hopefully the otter will show himself again.



Spring tides just now so Corryvreckan will be performing well over the next few days.

more dolphin









What a day, glorious weather, Corryvreckan performing well light winds allowed us to get up close and personal with the Calliach, loads of porpoise, sea eagles flying over Scarba, and to top it all 15 bottlenose dolphin spent about 15 mins with us what a treat. We seem to be having more dolphin sightings than usual just now but so far have not seen any whale although there has been one about so we are told.

I dont want to go



Sea Leopard 1 went away last week to her new job in Dover as a cross channel swim cover boat.



Her new owner Stuart Gleeson is one of twelve operators licenced to provide safety cover for cross channel swimmers. She is now based not far from where she was built and we hope that she looks after Stuart the same as she looked after us the last 9 years

June 2011







After a wet and windy spell in May at last some decent weather. Spring tides at the moment have woken up the Calliach and she is giving us some good curling standing waves and this afternoon a couple of good whirlpools.





We have seen bottlenose dolphin in Corryvreckan a couple of times in the last few days let us hope they stick around for a little longer
