  • Chatham Island and Pitt Island Shag Census 2011 DRAFT REPORT
    MCSPOP2010-02 DRAFT REPORT MCSPOP2010-02: Chatham Island and Pitt Island shag census 2011 DRAFT REPORT Chatham Island shag Pitt Island shag May 2012 Igor Debski1, Mike Bell2 and Dan Palmer1 1Science and Technical Group, Department of Conservation, PO Box 10-420, Wellington 6143 2Wildlife Management International Limited, PO Box 45, Spring Creek, Marlborough 7244 1 MCSPOP2010-02 DRAFT REPORT Abstract We conducted an extensive survey of coastal areas suitable for Chatham Island and Pitt Island shag nesting between August and November 2011. The census methods were designed to maximise comparability with an earlier census in 1997/98. Based on a complete census of all known Chatham Island shag breeding colonies we estimated the breeding population to be 355 pairs, representing a 58 % decline since 1997/98. We estimated the total Pitt Island shag breeding population to be 434 pairs, a 40% decline since 1997/98 (extrapolated numbers were used for some outlying islands known to hold this species that we did not visit). A series of regular observations showed that breeding activity for both species peaks in October, though there is some notable variation in timing between colonies. Such variation must be taken into consideration in estimating the total breeding population for both species. Both species are distributed across the Chatham Islands group. We found that population declines since 1997/98 have been particularly steep for both species at Pitt Island and outlying islands, with smaller declines on main Chatham Island. A range of anthropogenic threats have been identified, both land-based and at-sea. Because population declines have been particularly pronounced at pest-free, protected out-lying islands we conclude that at-sea factors are likely to be driving the population decline, though more research is required to identify causal factors.

  • SEABIRDS RECORDED at the CHATHAM ISLANDS, 1960 to MAY 1993 by M.J
    SEABIRDS RECORDED AT THE CHATHAM ISLANDS, 1960 TO MAY 1993 By M.J. IMBER Science and Research Directorate, Department of Conservation, P. 0. Box 10420, Wellington ABSTRACT Between 1960 and hlay 1993,62 species of seabirds were recorded at Chatham Islands, including 43 procellariiforms, 5 penguins, 5 pelecaniforms, and 9 hi.Apart &om the 24 breeding species, there were 14 regular visitors, 13 stragglers, 2 rarely seen on migration, and 9 found only beach-cast or as other remains. There is considerable endemism: 8 species or subspecies are confined, or largely confined, to breeding at the Chathams. INTRODUCTION The Chatham Islands (44OS, 176.5OW) are about 900 km east of New Zealand, and 560 km and 720 km respectively north-east of Bounty and Antipodes Islands. The Chatham Islands lie on the Subtropical Convergence (Fleming 1939) - the boundary between subtropical and subantarctic water masses; near the eastern end of the Chatham Rise - a shallow (4'500 m) submarine ridge extending almost to the New Zealand mainland. Chatham Island seabirds can feed over large areas of four marine habitats: the continental shelf of the Chatham Rise; the continental slope around it; and subtropical and subantarctic waters to the north, east, and south. The Chatham Islands' fauna and flora have, however, been very adversely affected by human colonisation for about 500 years (B. McFadgen, pers. cornrn.). Knowledge of the seabird fauna of the Chatham Islands gained up to 1960 is siunmarised in Oliver (1930), Fleming (1939), Dawson (1955, 1973), and papers quoted therein. The present paper summarises published and unpublished data on the seabirds of the archipelago from 1960 to May 1993, from when visits to these islands depended on infrequent passages by ship from Lyttelton, South Island, to the present, when a visit involves a 2-h scheduled flight from Napier, Wellington, or Christchurch, six dayslweek.

  • Jill Worrall Tours May 2020 Newsletter the Tentative 2021 Tour Schedule
    Jill Worrall Tours May 2020 Newsletter Hi Everyone Well, the departure date for my Romania and Balkans tour came and went as I prepared this newsletter which was very sad BUT this tour is not cancelled, only postponed and this time next year I really do hope that we will be winging our way (masked or otherwise!) to Bucharest. So, what’s the current status of Jill Worrall Tours? 1) We have now had to postpone the Romania and Balkans tour until May 2021 and the Pamir Highway adventure until July 2021. 2) At present we are postponing our South India tour scheduled for early 2021 until 2022 based on current conditions in India. 3) I am now working on some NZ and Australia tours that will have all the hallmarks of my more regular tours in terms of very special itineraries that will be personally managed by me and will be lots of fun. I hope these will give us all something to look forward to while we wait to be able to start more long-haul adventures. More about those below. The tentative 2021 Tour Schedule (first half of year) Jan-Mar: NZ and Australia tours as below April: Cherry Blossom Time in Japan May: Romania and the Balkans (rescheduled from 2020) July: Pamir Highway (rescheduled from 2020) August: Wildlife of Uganda The programme for the rest of 2021 will depend on what happens during the rest of 2020! Tours originally scheduled for 2021 including South India, Pakistan and Poland the Baltic States and Finland will be rescheduled for 2022.
