  • Holes Bay 2020 Annual Report
    Welcome to the first annual Holes Bay Nature Report. Inspired by the excellent and long established Lytchett Bay report, our aim is to promote Holes Bay and the surrounding area as a haven for nature, to record and share wildlife sightings, and to encourage more records. The recording area covers Holes Bay itself, the Creekmoor and PC World Drain, Upton Country Park and the surrounding farm fields (see map below). Records of birds overflying the recording area are also welcome. Sightings can be shared via our Twitter account @Bayholes, or e-mailed to [email protected] Martin Adams, Jackie and Nick Hull, Steve Smith and Nick Woods Contents: 1. Introduction - Martin Adams 4 2. Birds recorded in Holes Bay and Upton Country Park in 2020 18 3. The Wetland Bird Survey [WeBS counts] in Holes Bay - Stephen F. Smith 56 4. Spartina, birds and bird watching in Holes Bay - Nick Woods 60 5. Reptiles and landscape change around Holes Bay - Nick Woods 72 2 3 INTRODUCTION Martin Adams Holes Bay Nature Park is a haven for wildlife in an urban environment, a site where wildlife thrives despite being surrounded by human activity. We use Holes Bay and the land around it for transport, housing, retail and industry, as well as for leisure activities such as boating, cycling, fishing, dog walking, and of course birdwatching. Despite all this, Holes Bay is a thriving and arguably improving habitat for nature. The Nature Park is a SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) primarily for its importance to wintering birds, and the area north of the railway bridge is classified as a Bird Sensitive Area.

  • A Condition Assessment of Poole Harbour European Marine Site
    A condition assessment of Poole Harbour European Marine Site John Underhill-Day Report commissioned by Dr. Sue Burton, Natural England Team, Dorset Report Date 30 Sept 2006 Final Recommended citation: Underhill-Day, J. C. 2006. A condition assessment of Poole Harbour European Marine Site. Unpublished report, Footprint Ecology/Natural England. Dorset. England. © Natural England 2 Summary Natural England has a statutory duty to advise other relevant authorities on the conservation objectives for the European Marine Site in Poole Harbour. In order to facilitate this, Natural England wish to test the assumption that existing features are in favourable condition and quantify targets for 2000-2006. This report assesses the condition of the bird interest features of the Harbour, identifies damaging operations or activities, and recommends monitoring and management actions together with revised targets for the next reporting period. Much of the information from which the conclusions in this report are derived have been based on research work carried out in Poole Harbour from studies commissioned and financed by English Nature. Other major contributors have been the Environment Agency and the Harbour Commissioners. It is recommended that these and other organisations put in place amore integrated monitoring scheme for the Harbour. This could be initiated by a symposium to identify the issues and main stakeholders. Populations of those bird species for which the harbour was designated as an SPA are mostly stable or increasing. Breeding numbers of common terns and Mediterranean gulls have been rising and the wintering populations of black-tailed godwits and avocets have also been increasing. Shelduck numbers have declined but at a lower rate than those nationally.
