SUMMARY:Bickerton Hill Invertebrate Recording Day
DESCRIPTION:A general invertebrate recording day at Bickerton Hill (SW Cheshire). This is a joint event with RECORD. \nBickerton Hill lies to the south of the Sandstone Ridge at the southern tip of the Peckforton hills and covers approximately 280 acres. It was designated SSSI status in 1979 for it’s Lowland Heath habitat (of which little remains in Cheshire) and reptiles. Indeed the site has been known to support a population of Adders but none have been seen recently. Major efforts have been made by the National Trust to increase the area of Heathland\, after large parts of the site had become wooded over many years. It will be interesting to see if any invertebrates strongly associated with lowland heathland are found on the day. Despite the popularity of the site\, none of 4 x 1km squares that it overlaps with have had >100 invertebrates species (excl. leps) recorded since 1980. \nBickerton Hill SSSI Citation: \nBooking essential: Further details regarding parking etc. will be circulated a week before the day. You will be notified of cancellation via email in the event of a forecast of adverse weather. \nMore site information \nThis site is open to the public free of charge but permission is required to take voucher specimens.

SUMMARY:Hale Duck Decoy Invertebrate Recording Day
DESCRIPTION:An afternoon invertebrate recording session at Hale Duck Decoy\, Nr Widnes. This is a joint event with Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological Society. \nHale Duck Decoy is a small reserve within the Mersey Estuary SSSI\, owned by the Fleetwood-Hesketh Estate and managed by Halton Borough Council. It covers an area of 3 hectares of Hale Marsh\, on the north bank of the River Mersey. The reserve is in the shape of an irregular pentagon\, surrounded by a 16 foot wide moat and a continuous clay bank. The centre of the reserve is occupied by the Decoy pond\, which has five arms radiating outwards to each corner of the pentagon. Between the arms (which are known as pipes) are five small areas of woodland. \nAccording to RECORD\, 105 invertebrate species (excl. leps) have been recorded within the same 1 km as the decoy. Most of these are flies and spiders from recording in 1999 and almost all recent records are of dragonflies\, except for some other groups recorded by Tony Hunter and Gary Hedges during an August 2018 visit. The site has much potential for further survey. \nMersey Estuary SSSI Citation \nBooking essential: Further details regarding parking etc. will be circulated a week before the day. In the event of cancellation due to a forecast of adverse weather\, you will notified via email. \nPlease note this is an afternoon only visit to limit bird disturbance and owing to the site’s small size. \nThere is no open access to the public. Visits are only possible at certain times guided by the wardens. Please see the Friends of Pickerings Pasture website for more details.

SUMMARY:Thrang End and White Moss Invertebrate Recording Day
DESCRIPTION:A General Invertebrate Recording Day at Thrang End Farm (Morning) and White Moss (Afternoon) in North Lancashire (near the Border with Cumbria). \nThrang End Farm \nThis is part of the same SSSI where the rare and elusive hoverfly Doros profuges was successful found in 2018 by Jim Cresswell and Steve Garland during our Yealand invertebrate recording day. However\, there is no public right of way through the privately owned Thrang End Farm so it’s virtually never visited by Entomologists. The habitat is similar to the adjacent Yealand Allotment with Limestone Pavement and numerous ant hills but is grazed\, at least by a herd of Fallow Deer that were seen during a site visit\, and also rabbits. There is no obvious reason why Doros would be absent from Thrang End Farm so this will be a good opportunity to search for the adult fly. \nYealand Allotment and Thrang End SSSI Citation \nThrang Coppice\, Thrang Moss and White Moss (a short walk east of Thrang End) \nA mosaic of lowland fen\, ditches and birch and oak woodland with scrubby areas of coppiced hazel\, blackthorn and crab apple surrounding rough pasture. This site is private owned and has no conservation designation but is currently being managed under a Higher Level Stewardship scheme agreement. \nBooking essential: Further details regarding parking etc. will be circulated a week before the day. You will be notified via email of cancellation in the event of forecasted adverse weather conditions. \nThe nearest WC facilities and shelter are at RSPB Leighton Moss. \nN.B. There is no public access to these sites apart from a PROW through Thrang Moss and along the Southern Edge of White Moss.

SUMMARY:Goyt Valley Invertebrate Recording Day
DESCRIPTION:A general invertebrate recording day in the Goyt Valley\, Peak District (VC58\, Derbyshire). This is a joint meeting with Sorby Invertebrate Group. \nWe’ll walk up the valley for 15-20 minutes\, recording as we go until we reach an open area of grass moorland and upland heath\, west of Errwood Hall where we’ll do the majority of recording. This area has no conservation designation but includes a variety of interesting habitats\, some of which are on open access land. Once we’re finished recording in this area we’ll return to the car park and there’ll be an optional drive to a few 1km squares with no invertebrates records in recent decades in a ‘square bashing’ exercise. \nPlease meet at the free car park (SK012748) next to the Errwood Reservoir. \nBooking essential: Further details will be circulated a week before the day. You will be notified via email if the event is cancelled due to an adverse weather forecast.
