  • Isles of Scilly
    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.

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of a vessel depends ultimately on the judgement of the navigator, who should assess all information, published or unpublished, available to him/her.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.

  • The Isles of Scilly April 27Th to May 5Th 2018
    SANDWICH BAY BIRD OBSERVATORY HOLIDAYS THE ISLES OF SCILLY APRIL 27TH TO MAY 5TH 2018 Tresco from Halangy Down -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Friday April 27th : The journey down and the crossing on ‘The Scillonian’ Most of the group had assembled at the Bird Observatory the previous evening for the overnight coach journey down to Penzance, picking Erica Wells up at Hatton Cross en route and with a couple of comfort stops at service stations on the way. Most people got at least some sleep on the journey. The weather was not very good, with relentless rain all night, which only eased after dawn as we arrived in Penzance. We had also received news that the ferry crossing was going to be delayed due to the strong winds forecast for around the Land’s End area and the state of the tide. So, we had to kill time in Penzance for a few hours before embarking at 10.45 and sailing at about 12 noon. A nice male Common Eider in the Penzance inner harbour was a pleasant sight, as always. It is a solitary bird which seems completely lost and has been resident around the harbour for several years now. The group was made up to its full complement as Peter Roberts joined us on the quayside, having made his own way down to Penzance from his home on Islay in Scotland. The two and a half hour crossing to Hugh Town on St. Mary’s was forecasted as going to be rough, with a steady south-east wind swinging round to the north-east during the journey.

We enjoyed good weather most of the time, although it was fairly breezy on some days. Everyone was struck by the wonderful clarity of the air, and the intensity of the colours of the flowers, especially in the sub-tropical gardens. An exciting trip on a RIB (rigid-inflatable boat) with Island Sea Safaris took us to the Western Rocks and Mincarlo where we had close views of seabirds and seals in a very dramatic setting. We used the inter-island boat service on a few days, giving us good views of the islands and countless rocks and reefs as we crossed the calm waters between St Mary’s and the other islands. We also made use of the local bus service to get around St Mary’s and followed many quiet paths and trails, passing ancient burial chambers and other archaeological sites. Scilly is well served by cafes and restaurants and we made good use of these on our daily walks.
