SUMMARY:Starr Hills Invertebrate Recording Day
DESCRIPTION:Starr Hills\, Lytham St Annes is owned by Flyde Council and is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It covers 23.6 ha of sand dune. The northern section of the coastal dunes at Starr Hills has some patchy pioneer and foredune vegetation\, including scattered prickly salt-wort Salsola kali and small stands of sand couch-grass Eltrigia juncea and lyme-grass Leymus arenarius\, along much of its length.  \nThe area we’re looking at inland and east of the A584 is fixed dune habitat with creeping willow\, ponds and a marshy area with willow scrub.  \nThis recording day will involve walking a few kilometres\, including over sand hills due to the distance from the car park to the focus areas. There are 40p toilets at the carpark\, and there is a Cafe next to the carpark but no facilities nearby the survey areas. \nThe carpark is pay and display but we will be given free passes for the day.  \n​Please be aware that whilst we welcome invertebrate recorders of all experience levels\, our recording days are not taught or guided sessions. (Check out our webinars/workshops here).\n \nEvents will be subject to cancellation if there is severe weather forecast. \nBooking essential: Further details regarding meeting place etc. will be circulated before the day.
