The exhibition has now been retruned to storage, but is due to be installed in Taigh Chearsabhagh Museum & Arts Centre, on the Isle of North Uist in the late summer.
Please check back here for updates and precise timing of the next showing.
As part of our contribution to the celebration of Highland culture during 2007, Scottish Natural Heritage has commissioned an exhibition of Highland Naturalists.
Mar phàirt den bhliadhna Cultar na Gaidhealtachd ann an 2007, tha Dualchas Nàdair na h-Alba air taisbeanadh a chuir air dòigh le luchd-nàdar a' Ghàidhealtachd.
We have chosen to feature the work of a selection of naturalists, living and dead, who have changed the way we think about the Highlands and Islands. Their studies guide us through the early beginnings of natural history recording, through the 'Golden Age' of nature conservation and right up to the present day. We aim to draw attention to the valuable work that has taken place which has informed our understanding of the natural heritage and hope to inspire others to continue this tradition with their own studies.
Tha sinn air roghainn de luchd-nàdar a tha beò agus marbh a thaghadh far a bheil an obair aca air ar n-inntinn atharrachadh air mar a tha sinn a’ smaointinn mu dheidhinn a’ Ghaidhealtachd ‘s na h-Eileanan. Tha an rannsachadh a tha iad air a dhèanamh a’ toirt stiùireadh dhuinn bho tràth aig toiseach na clàraidhean eachdraidheil, tron “Linn Òrach” de glèidhteachas nàdar chun an latha diugh.
A website and on-line resource is being developed in support of the exhibit and this will provide a lasting legacy and resource for the future.
Tha làrach lìn ga chruthachadh an drasda an taic ris an taisbeanadh seo agus bi seo na dìleab maireannach agus na goireas airson an àm ri teachd.
