    Isles of Scilly Naturetrek Tour Report 14 - 21 September 2019 Porthcressa and the Garrison Red Squirrel Grey Seals Birdwatching on Peninnis Head Report & Images by Andrew Cleave Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report Isles of Scilly Tour participants: Andrew Cleave (leader) plus 12 Naturetrek clients Summary Our early-autumn week on the Isles of Scilly was timed to coincide with the bird migration which is easily observed on the islands. Our crossings to and from Scilly on Scillonian III enabled us to see seabirds in their natural habitat, and the many boat trips we took during the week gave us close views of plenty of the resident and migrant birds which were feeding and sheltering closer to shore. We had long walks on all of the inhabited islands and as well as birds, managed to see some marine mammals, many rare plants and some interesting intertidal marine life. Informative evening lectures by resident experts were well received and we also sampled lovely food in many of the pubs and cafés on the islands. Our waterfront accommodation in Schooners Hotel was very comfortable and ideally placed for access to the harbour and Hugh Town. Day 1 Saturday 14th September We began our trip in Penzance harbour where we boarded Scillonian III for the crossing to Scilly. Conditions were fine for the crossing and those of us up on deck had good views of seabirds, including Gannets, Fulmars and winter-plumage auks as we followed the Cornish coast and then headed out into the Atlantic.

Green g radar reflector Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of on pole Fl.G.4s. this supplement. However, it contains selected information and thus is not definitive and does not include all known information on the subject in hand. The authors, the RCC Pilotage Foundation and Imray Laurie Norie & Wilson Ltd believe this supplement to be a useful aid to prudent navigation, but the safety of a vessel depends ultimately on the judgement of the navigator, who should assess all information, published or unpublished, available to him/her. With the increasing precision of modern position-fixing methods, allowance must be made for inaccuracies in latitude and longitude on many charts, inevitably perpetuated on some harbour plans. Modern surveys specify which datum is used together with correction figures if required, but older editions should be used with caution, particularly in restricted visibility.

  • Rat-Free Islands
    The Shearwater Issue 6 December 2016 Working with the local community and visitors on the Isles of Scilly to enhance their important seabird heritage Manx shearwater and storm petrel numbers continue to climb on our rat-free islands. We have lots to celebrate this year. In January Biz Bell and the Wildlife Management International team carried out their final check and in February we were declared officially rat-free. Thanks to all the residents of St Agnes and Gugh who made our ‘rat-free celebration’ such a wonderful event. Manx shearwaters and storm petrels continue to increase on the two islands. For Manxies, we recorded 72 nesting pairs and 32 chicks this year. For storm petrels there were 9 nesting pairs and 6 chicks across a new survey site from Troytown to Castella Down. Big thanks to community members who joined these Above: St Agnes school children, community members, project team, WMIL’s Biz Bell and volunteers celebrate rat-free status at Manx shearwater surveys and our ‘chick-check’ evening walks. the ’rat-free celebration’. Photo Ed Marshall. We completed the final year’s field work of ecological monitoring for wider species. Results will be out in the Spring. And as these surveys came to a close, the training of community members in biosecurity and incursion response training was stepped up, ready for the final year of the project. Please do keep assisting us, do report any possible sightings to the team by ringing 01720 422153 and for any further information on the project just visit www.ios-seabirds.org.uk A Merry Christmas to one and all!
