  • This Walk Description Is from Happyhiker.Co.Uk Lizard Point
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Lizard Point Starting point and OS Grid reference Lizard village (SW 703126) Ordnance Survey map OS Explorer 103 - The Lizard – Falmouth and Helston Distance 6.2 miles Traffic light rating Introduction: This easy walk from Lizard (the village) takes in the old, very picturesque village Cadgwith with its thatched cottages and Lizard Point, the most southerly point on the British mainland. There are also various other interesting things to see. Lizard village itself is rather spoiled by its homage to tourism but it is a very useful start point partly because there is a large amount of parking (voluntary charge for charity) but mainly because in relation to the walk it is like the hub of a wheel with many footpaths as the spokes. This means that the walk is easily lengthened or shortened according to circumstances, although depending on which “spoke” you pick, you may miss some of the points of interest. The route described includes all the following: The Devils Frying Pan Church Cove Lizard Lifeboat Station Bass Point Bumble Rock Lizard Point Lighthouse Polpeor Cove and the old lifeboat station. In late spring/early summer, the cliff tops are a mass of wild flowers including the intriguingly name Hottentot Fig, a South African invader, which blankets the cliffs at Lizard Point. There is also the possibility of seeing a variety of sea and marine life. The open grassland to the NW of Lizard Point has been awarded Site of Special Scientific Interest due to the great variety of rare and wild flowers, best seen between spring and mid summer.

    Report on scarce migrant birds in Britain in 1998 Peter A. Fraser, Peter G. Lansdown and Michael J. Rogers Ernest Leahy Horned Larks Eremophila alpestris ABSTRACT For this fourth annual report, covering 1998, information on assessed and accepted records of scarce migrant birds was supplied, sometimes in advance of publication in their local bird reports, by County Bird Recorders. There were all-time record numbers of two species in 1998: Cory’s Shearwater Calonectris diomedea and White Stork Ciconia ciconia. Furthermore, Balearic Shearwater Puffinus mauretanicus, Wryneck Jynx torquilla, Horned Lark Eremophila alpestris and Great Grey Shrike Lanius excubitor each registered the highest totals since we started to monitor their occurrences annually; and numbers of Purple Herons Ardea purpurea and Red-backed Shrikes Lanius collurio in 1998 were the joint-highest and highest respectively during the last ten years. In 1998, no species registered its lowest-ever annual total, nor was any species’ annual total the lowest during its study period. Fewer Tawny Pipits Anthus campestris,Savi’s Warblers Locustella luscinioides, Aquatic Warblers Acrocephalus paludicola and Melodious Warblers Hippolais polyglotta were seen in 1998, however, than in any other of the last ten years. 588 © British Birds 93: 588-641, December 2000 Fraser et al.: Report on scarce migrant birds in Britain in 1998 his is the fourth annual report on their ready co-operation, this report would scarce migrant birds in Britain.

    The restoration of the Red-billed Chough in Cornwall Ian Carter,Andy Brown, Leigh Lock, Simon Wotton and Stuart Croft ABSTRACT The Red-billed Chough Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax has a restricted range in Britain and has been in long-term decline since at least the early 1800s. Southwest England was a former stronghold and Cornwall was the last county in England from which it was lost as a breeding species, the last successful breeding attempt being in 1947.The reduction of suitable foraging habitat owing to changes in the management of clifftop pastures, and the direct impact of human activities are thought to be the main factors responsible for the loss of Red-billed Choughs from the southwest. Recently, there has been much interest in restoring the Red-billed Chough to Cornwall, and this has increased following a small influx of birds to the county in spring 2001 and successful breeding in 2002.The Cornwall Chough Project has been launched to monitor the birds currently present, and to encourage natural recolonisation through appropriate management of coastal habitats.There is now more potentially suitable habitat in Cornwall, and adjacent parts of Devon, than at any time since the species was last present, and such habitat is likely to increase further during the next few years. he Red-billed Chough Pyrrhocorax 1993) but a small population in Northern pyrrhocorax breeds patchily from Ireland Ireland is now on the verge of extinction (Giles Tsouth to the Atlas Mountains of Morocco Knight in litt).

  • The History of the NCI (Post-1994)
    The History of the NCI (Post-1994) The newly formed National Coastwatch Institution was able to lease the lookout at Bass Point from the National Trust at a peppercorn rent and secured funding from several sources to repair and outfit the station. In October 1994, Capt. Starling Lark and Peter Rayment held a public meeting at the Football Club House on the Lizard, where they outlined their ideas for a lookout at Bass Point and asked for people to volunteer as watchkeepers. There was an exceptionally good response, with one local Fisherman standing up and saying, “I reckon we’ve seen history being made here tonight!”. Soon afterwards, Lynn Briggs was appointed as the NCI’s first Station Manager at Bass Point and many of NCI’s procedures today evolved from Lynn’s pioneering work as Station Manager in those early days at the Bass Point lookout. NCI Bass Point began operational watch-keeping in November 1994, thanks to several local volunteers, who with their experience as fishermen or deep-sea sailors, helped with the on- the-job training of the volunteers. On the 3rd of February 1995, NCI Bass Point was officially opened on a cold, windy and damp day by Jenny Agutter, the well-known actress who had a home nearby. Early in March 1996 the first radar set in NCI became operational at Bass Point, just in time for a group of volunteers to mount a 24-hour watch to monitor the participants in the Fastnet Race as they rounded the Lizard, producing some of the first incidents for the NCI as, following reports from Bass Point, several boats were advised by Falmouth Coastguard that they were heading dangerously close to the Men Hyr rocks just south of Bass Point.

Analysis of long-term effort-related land-based observations to identify whether coastal areas of harbour porpoise and bottlenose dolphin have persistent high occurrence & abundance. JNCC report No. 543, JNCC, Peterborough. Summary Dedicated shore watches for cetaceans have been conducted at a number of sites around the UK since 1965. Here, over 75,000 hours of watches and c50,000 associated sightings of bottlenose dolphin and harbour porpoise from 678 sites around the coasts of Britain are analysed, in order to determine whether areas of persistent high occurrence and relative abundance of the two species can be identified. Average sightings rates (sightings per unit hour of search) and count rates (animals per unit hour of search) were calculated from each site over the full time period that watches were conducted. For use in statistical modelling, results were summarised by site and by day (thus eliminating within-day autocorrelation), and records associated with high Beaufort ‘sea state’ and short observation duration were filtered out.
