Recording – Tongue: a Ten Year Adventure
March 1st 2026
On Thursday 19th February 2026 at Stoer village hall, Ian Evans of Assynt Field Club presented an account of his and four other Highland naturalists’ experience exploring the area around Tongue. The talk introduced the landscape, plants and other wildlife of the area’s coasts, islands and hills.
A live recording of the talk was made. Due to the large file size, the recording is hosted on our YouTube channel. This link to the recording of the presentation will therefore take you away from our website.
