Butterfly Conservation Hampshire and Isle of Wight Branch Page 1 of 18 Butterfly Conservation Hampshire and Saving butterflies, moths and our environment Isle of Wight Branch HOME ABOUT US EVENTS CONSERVATION HANTS & IOW SPECIES SIGHTINGS PUBLICATIONS LINKS MEMBER'S AREA Thursday 30th June Christine Reeves reports from Ash Lock Cottage (SU880517) where the following observations were made: Purple Emperor (1 "Rather battered specimen"). "Following the excitement of seeing our first Purple Emperor inside our office yesterday, exactly the same thing happened again today at around 9.45am. The office door was open and we spotted a butterfly on the inside of the window, on closer inspection we realised it was a Purple Emperor. It was much smaller than the one we had seen the day before and more battered. However we were able to take pictures of it, in fact the butterfly actually climbed onto one of the cameras and remained there for a while. It then climbed from camera to hand, and we took it outside for more pictures before it eventually flew off. It seemed to be feeding off the hand.". Purple Empeor Purple Empeor Terry Hotten writes: "A brief walk around Hazeley Heath this morning produced a fresh Small Tortoiseshell along with Marbled Whites, Silver- studded Blues in reasonable numbers along with Meadow Browns, Ringlets and Large and Small Skippers." peter gardner reports from highcross froxfield (SU712266) where the following observations were made: Red Admiral (1 "purched on an hot window "). Red Admiral (RWh) Bob Whitmarsh reports from Plague Pits Valley, St Catherine's Hill (SU485273) where the following observations were made: Marbled White (23), Meadow Brown (41), Small Heath (7), Small Skipper (2), Ringlet (2), Red Admiral (3), Small Tortoiseshell (4), Small White (2), Comma (1). -

Havant Covid-19 Data Pack Contents
HAVANT COVID-19 DATA PACK CONTENTS Introduction Population health needs, risks and vulnerabilities in the context of COVID-19 • Geography • Demography – Population, Age, Gender, Population density, Ethnicity • Socio economic data • Housing • Co-Morbidities • Vulnerability • Shielded patients • Mapping risks and settings COVID-19 outbreak control plan theme settings • Children settings – children’s centres, schools/special schools • Adults settings – care homes • Other/ high-risk settings – workplace zones/businesses/transport access points/Military COVID-19 surveillance • COVID-19 Infections • NHS Pathways Data • Deaths Map source: PHE SHAPE HAVANT COVID-19 DATA PACK INTRODUCTION • SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus, much remains to be understood about transmission dynamics and effects on our population, so emerging intelligence is preliminary and subject to change • Increasing amounts of COVID-19 intelligence are becoming available and so these data packs aim to collate data from a variety of open sources for each district to explore and better understand potential population health needs, risks and vulnerabilities which exist at a local level, including Local Outbreak Control Plan theme settings. • Local knowledge and intelligence are key when interpreting localised transmission, to identify common factors early enough and prevent further spread of COVID-19. Local Authorities know their areas and should work with Local Authority Public Health and Public Health England (PHE) Health Protection Teams (HPT) to provide insights on localised outbreaks/clusters to ensure an agile and flexible response. This is done in conjunction with COVID-19 surveillance to monitor COVID-19 disease and the impact of local social distancing measures. • Whilst these datapacks provide a population health overview, they do not provide timely data to control localised outbreaks/clusters, led by the PHE HPT and therefore should not be used as a proxy for management of COVID-19. -

Hollins 2015
WILDLIFE DIARY AND NEWS FOR DEC 28 - JAN 3 (WEEK 53 OF 2015) Fri 1st January 2016 54 Birds and 45 Flowers to start the year In my garden just before sunrise the moon was close to Jupiter high in the southern sky and Robins and a Song Thrush were serenading it from local gardens as a Carrion Crow flew down to collect the sraps of bread I threw out on the lawn before setting out on my bike in search of birds. Also on my lawn I was surprised to see that a Meadow Waxcap fungus had sprung up a couple of weeks after I thought my garden fungus season was over - later I added another fungus to my day list with a smart fresh Yellow Fieldcap (Bolbitius vitellinus) growing from a cowpat on the South Moors Internet photos of Yellow Fieldcap and Meadow Waxcap My proposed route was along the shore from Langstone to Farlington Marshes lake and as the wind was forecast to become increasingly strong from the south- east, and the tide to be rising from low at 9.0am I thought it best to follow the shore with the wind behind me on the way out and to stick to the cycle track and roads on the way home so I rode down Wade Court Road listening out for garden birds among which I heard bursts of song from more than one Dunnock (not a bird I associate with winter song) and saw two smart cock Pheasants in the horse feeding area immediately south of Wade Court. -

When I joined Butterfly Conservation some ten years ago, as a new recruit to the wonderful world of moths, I never envisaged becoming part of the main committee let alone finding myself on this ‘lofty perch’! Firstly, I would like to register my and the Branch’s thanks to Pete Eeles for his support and enthusiasm for the branch during his time as chair, despite the pressures of a job that often saw him away from the country, and to the other members of the main committee for their support and enthusiasm over the past twelve months. -
Hollins 1998
RALPH HOLLINS WILDLIFE HIGHLIGHTS – 1998 WEEK 52 BIRDS: THU 31 DEC. Mark Litjens toured Keyhaven, Timsbury and Farlington today in preparation for his New Year’s Day list and here is what he had to say about his day. “Today I was checking on certain species for the new years day bash. I started at near Keyhaven and had another BARN OWL at first light. On to Milford and the adult MED. GULL was parked in the pay and display car park. I couldn't see it's ticket though!!! A walk to Hurst Castle to check if the Black Redstart was still around but no sign of it. Not much passed Hurst though, 2 Guillemots, 1 Common Scoter and 1 Diver sp. A kingfisher was sitting on the bridge at the end of New Lane for a short while and 100+ Golden plovers were very well camouflaged in a ploughed field nearby. A walk from Lower Pennington Lane car park to the sea wall produced 2 PEREGRINE Falcons but only 2 Slavonian Grebes were visible on the sea. Stopping off at Timsbury on the way to Farlington produced the FERRUGINOUS DUCK and RING-NECKED DUCK very quickly. At Farlington Marshes the AVOCET showed well on the mud west of the main lagoon and some 60 KNOT were nearby. I only saw 1 SHORT-EARED OWL but 3 had been seen during the morning.” WED 30 DEC NEEDS ORE POINT at the mouth of the Beaulieu river on the New Forest shore was visited by Mark Litjens today and as he arrived a splendid BARN OWL crossed his path as a prelude to a seawatch in which he saw 1 EIDER and 8 DIVER SPECIES but a bigger and better bird was waiting for him by the disabled hide – a RAVEN which made its distinctive gruff call and fed on the ground before flying off east. -
