HELFORD Voluntary Marine Conservation Area Newsletter No. 36 Spring 2008 Visitors to Constantine Choughs © RSPB In little more than 10 years Little Egrets have become well-established, with hundreds of nesting pairs nationwide. The Choughs will take a little longer, but have already raised 32 young on the Lizard peninsula in the first six years – a success rate none of us would have dared to expect. So, for our next trick…. the Cattle Egret? Since November there has been an unprecedented Little egret © D Chapman influx to our shores of these small, warm-weather herons.

Penzance Guizing and Montol Festival
Merv Davey : Penzance Guizing and Montol Festival Penzance Guizing and Montol Festival These are notes based on research undertaken for a thesis on Cornish Folk tradi- tions. Information s drawn from participant observation and conversation with organis- ers 21st December 2008 and 2010. This is an evolving event, for more information visit www.cornishculture.co.uk Summary The Lord of Misrule is chosen by casting lots (in the form of beans) at the steps of St Johns at 5.45 pm approximately. Dress is vaguely mock posh with as much black as possible and Ve- netian style masks, many of which were made at an earlier workshop. The Lord of Misrule then leads the pro- cession leads from St Johns Hall to Lescud- jack Hill Fort at 6pm. A beacon is lit fol- lowed by a dance lead by the Turkey Rhubarb Guizers. The guizing parties return to the area around Chapel Street, some performances take place in the pubs and some outside. At about 10pm Pen Glas is brought out on to Chapel street and processes down to the Harbour side ac- companied by Bagas Torchen the torch bearers to complete the event with a circular “candle” dance. Merv Davey Appendix 4.6 : Penzance Guizing and Montol Festival Conversation with Simon Reed one of the event organisers 21st Dec 2010 Montol is the Cornish word for the Midwinter Solstice. According to Edward Lhuyd in his1700 also translates Montol as "balance". To the organisers of the festival both interpretations are important: firstly the Montol festival is a balance to the ever popular Golowan festival, secondly it is also the celebration of the Cornish Mid- winter and revival of its ancient cus- toms. -

Lizard Geology Field Trip
Malvern U3A Geology Group LIZARD FIELD TRIP Led by Dr Nick Chidlaw 11th to 14th April 2013 The origin of the Lizard Complex The Lizard consists of oceanic components that have been thrust faulted (obducted) over younger rocks. The context would have been a small rift basin similar to the Red Sea or Gulf of California and was formed at the same time as the development of the SW England passive margin during the Early Devonian. This was terminated by the onset of convergence between two plates with partial ‘obduction’ achieved by the Upper Devonian. The Lizard now contains a suite of rocks from the upper surface consisting of sediments, and below them pillow lavas, sheeted dykes and gabbros merging into layered gabbro followed by ultrabasic rocks of peridotite representing the crust down to, and including, the mantle. Such sequences of rocks are known as an ophiolite complex and the Lizard is one of the best examples in Britain.
