P.nderson 3. Robinson I. Traynor R. Traynor P. watson Committee member: Mr T. Lawson Mrs M. Pirozek S CLUB RECORDING AREA EDITORIAL Thanks are due once again to all those members and non-members who have submitted records for this report. The species accounts have been compiled by Andy Booth (Divers to Ducks), Jim Pewtress, Raptors to Coot), Peter Watson (Waders to Auks), Ruth Traynor (Doves to Warblers#) and Jackie Robinson (Tits to Buntings) and edited by Danae Stevens. Muriel Pirozek has been responsible for the final production of the Report. Thanks to Andy Booth for the illustrations. The processing of records places a time consuming and often repetitive workload on the above person, who have given their time freely to produce this Report and our grateful thanks are due to them. The Report has been slightly delayed this year due to the fact that it is my first year as Editor, a job done so magnificently in the past by Jim Pewtress, who has set a high standard for me to follow. Our thanks also go to the members of the Committee for the work they have done throughout the year, our travelling members who so kindly share with us their intrepid expeditions and those members who offer lifts to those without transport for club outings and other trips. We welcome to the club new members who have joined this year. We have tried to produce a report of interest and our aim is to have complete and accurate coverage of our area. Perhaps new members live in areas not covered by other club members and we would be delighted to receive records from them. Guidelines for submitting records are available from the Recorder. It was heartening to receive so many records this year from independent recorders, in the absence of any ‘official’ records from the Lower Derwent Valley National Nature Reserve. The absence of the ‘official’ records may account for the apparent reductions in sightings of some species, most notably within the Divers to Ducks and Waders to Auks sections. Several records of scarcer species were submitted without descriptions, and this is made clear at the end of that record. We are trying to achieve an accurate and true account of the birds in our area and any species which appear on the YNU/BBRC list must have a description and must be submitted via the Recorder. The YNtJ/BBRC list of species usually appears every five years, however, if a member would like an up-to-date list this is available from the Recorder. As an extra reminder we have again published the list in this year’s Report. It is never too late to submit descriptions from previous years and if accepted they will be included in future Reports, but it is best practice to submit records as soon as possible after the sighting. Danae Stevens 7 THE NEED FOR FIELD DESCRIPTIONS To enable us to present our report with complete accuracy contributors are reminded that records of the following species must be supported by field descriptions, taken in the field before reference to text books. They will be sent to the Yorkshire Naturalists Union Reports Committee for consideration before being accepted for publication. It would help both the Recorder and the YNU if descriptions were sent as soon as possible after the sighting. Forms based on those accepted by the British Birds Rarities Committee can be obtained from the Recorder or any YNU Vice-County Recorder. Uncommon and Difficult Species: Great Northern Diver Pomarine Skua Black-throated Diver Long-tailed Skua Slavonian Grebe Mediterranean Gull Black-necked Grebe Ring-billed Gull Cory’s Shearwater Iceland Gull Great Shearwater Sabine’s Gull Storm Petrel Roseate Tern Leach’s Petrel Black Guillemot Purple Heron Bee-eater White Stork Woodlark Bean Goose Richard’s Pipit Teal “Green-winged Teal” Tawny Pipit Red-crested Pochard Bluethroat Ferruginous Duck Cetti’s Warbler Surf Scoter Savi’s Warbler Honey Buzzard Aquatic Warbler Red Kite Marsh Warbler Montagu’s Harrier Icterine Warbler Goshawk Barred Warbler Rough-legged Buzzard Barred Warbler Golden Eagle Pallas’s Warbler Hobby Yellow-browed Warbler Spotted Crake Firecrest Crane Red-breasted Flycatcher Stone Curlew Woodchat Shrike Kentish Plover Golden Oriole Temminck’s Stint Chough Pectoral Sandpiper Raven Buff-breasted Phalorope Serin Red-necked Phalorope Scarlet Rosef inch Grey Phalarope Cirl Bunting Ortalon Bunting B In view of the increasing number of reports of locally uncommon species being received, and in the light of certain anomalies e.g. regular occurring birds such as Hobby and Glaucous Gull require descriptions whereas species not recorded in the Y.O.C. area such as Sooty Shearwater or Razorbill do not, the recorders feel that some substantiation of records of some other species is required. Accordingly, contributors MAY be asked to provide supporting details for the following species: Fulmar Quail Long-eared Owl Manx Shearwater Corncrake Hoopoe Sooty Shearwater Turnstone Wryneck Gannet Bar-tailed Godwit Shorelark Shag Knot Raven Garganey Purple Sandpiper Bearded Tit Long-tailed Duck Little Stint Ring Ouzel Common Scoter Curlew Sandpiper Black Redstart Velvet Scoter Sanderling Great Grey Shrike Eider Avocet Red-backed Shrike Ruddy Duck Great Skua Hawf inch Red-breasted Merganser Little Gull Twite white-fronted Goose Kittiwake Crossbill Brent Goose Sandwich Tern Snow Bunting Buzzard Little Tern Lapland Bunting Marsh Harrier ALL Auks 9 Earliest and latest dates for migrants Species Arrival Date Last Reported Black-necked Grebe 20th April 28th August Turtle Dove 13th May 5th July Cuckoo 27th April 9th June Swift 24th April 27u September Sand Martin 11th April 30th August Swallow 2nd April 20th october House Martin 10th April 9th October Tree Pipit 13th April 5th July Yellow Wagtail 5th May 16th September Grasshopper warbler 22nd April 24th June Sedge Warbler 27th April 19th August Lesser Whitethroat 7th May 19th August Whitethroat 24th April 17th July Blackcap 23rd March 22nd December Chiffchaff 12th March 29tb September Willow Warbler 2nd April 28th October Spotted Flycatcher 18th May 26th August 10 HIGHLIGHTS OF 1997 1ThNUARY Early January was cold with overnight frosts and north-easterly winds. Daytime temperatures were below freezing and there was a sprinkling of snow over much of eastern England. When the winds turned to the southwest on 11th, slightly milder conditions prevailed and the second half of the month saw temperatures above the seasonal average. It was the driest January on record for 200 years. The year started promisingly with a Great Grey Shrike delighting viewers at Fulford Ings and at least two wandering Smew in the Lower Derwent Valley. Both species proved good value and were present through to at least mid-February. Impressive flocks of Skylark (330 at Newton upon Derwent on 1st) and Corn Bunting (30 at Church Bridge on 8th) braved the cold spell at the start of the new year. Later in the month an improvement in temperatures resulted in the first amorous proclamations of House Sparrows, Song Thrushes, Blackbirds and Skylarks. FEBRU?.RY Although rainfall was not excessive February was nevertheless mild, wet and windy. The weather was dominated by a series of deep Atlantic depressions, bringing with them strong southwesterly winds. Aside from the long-staying Great Grey Shrike (until 16th), waterbirds provided most of the interest this month. Wildfowl enthusiasts were still being treated to Smew at Bank Island as well as Bewicks Swan, White-fronted Geese (seven), Goosander (200+) at Wheldrake Ings on 2nd, with Greylag Geese (c.400), Bean Goose (9th) and Pink-footed Geese (three on 15th) at Castle Howard. Waterbirds were further represented by a first winter Glaucous Gull at Wheldrake Ings on 2nd and an adult Mediterranean Gull at North Duffield Carrs on 13th. Unfortunately, no descriptions for these two sightings were provided so that Club is unable to support these records. A wintering Ruff again at Wheldrake Ings on 2nd completed the waterbird line-up. NZiRCH With high pressure and light south to southwesterly winds March was exceptionally mild, at least for the first three weeks. It cooled off towards the end of the month although with the wind turning to the north-west. Rainfall stayed low across the country. Little of especial note occurred throughout early March with only the arrival of Blackcap (Fulford golf course on the 10th) 11 and Chiffchaff (Wheldrake Ings on 12th), and the antics of Barn Owls at Osbaldwick Road, Riccall and Slingsby keeping members’ spirits up. Nine Pink-footed Geese at Wheldrake on the 14th increased the interest, but the best bird of the month arrived in the form of a Waxwing at Brandsby on 23rd. APRIL The dry and mild weather continued into April with high pressure and light winds being the norm, although there were some overnight frosts, daytime temperatures remained above average and there was little rainfall before 25th. The mild weather of March continued until April, leaving only a few reminders of winter - Merlin at Stearsby on 1st and 33 Pink- footed Geese at Wheldrake on 20th.

  • 2017 City of York Biodiversity Action Plan
    CITY OF YORK Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2017 City of York Local Biodiversity Action Plan - Executive Summary What is biodiversity and why is it important? Biodiversity is the variety of all species of plant and animal life on earth, and the places in which they live. Biodiversity has its own intrinsic value but is also provides us with a wide range of essential goods and services such as such as food, fresh water and clean air, natural flood and climate regulation and pollination of crops, but also less obvious services such as benefits to our health and wellbeing and providing a sense of place. We are experiencing global declines in biodiversity, and the goods and services which it provides are consistently undervalued. Efforts to protect and enhance biodiversity need to be significantly increased. The Biodiversity of the City of York The City of York area is a special place not only for its history, buildings and archaeology but also for its wildlife. York Minister is an 800 year old jewel in the historical crown of the city, but we also have our natural gems as well. York supports species and habitats which are of national, regional and local conservation importance including the endangered Tansy Beetle which until 2014 was known only to occur along stretches of the River Ouse around York and Selby; ancient flood meadows of which c.9-10% of the national resource occurs in York; populations of Otters and Water Voles on the River Ouse, River Foss and their tributaries; the country’s most northerly example of extensive lowland heath at Strensall Common; and internationally important populations of wetland birds in the Lower Derwent Valley.

  • 1 Derwenthorpe
    Derwenthorpe – Vision to Reality This is the edited text of a talk given by Steven Burkeman to (mainly) residents of Derwenthorpe, on 11 October 2017 at the energy centre (aka the SSC) there. For ease of reading I have not included references/footnotes etc., but they are available on request. --- We moved to Derwenthorpe a couple of years ago, and while we love living here, balancing two hats has sometimes been challenging (there have been some awkward moments at parties). Today, while I’ve been advertised as a trustee, almost everything I want to say is in the public domain. I’m grateful to my friend, and house vendor, Paul Black, and to Richard, now Lord, Best for telling me about aspects of the early part of the Derwenthorpe story of which I wasn’t previously aware. Many thanks also to Frank and Liz Wilson, who live in Osbaldwick, and who gathered an amazing archive of material about the lead-up to Derwenthorpe -- some of it is laid out for you to look at afterwards. Which reminds me that of course, as residents Jane and I are ‘Johnnies-cum-lately’, moving in on 1st October 2015. There will surely be people here who know parts of the story which I don’t know, or who will spot things that I get wrong – my intention is to speak for about 25 minutes, so as to allow time for you to add to the story. To trace the beginnings of the vision for Derwenthorpe, you have to go back to 1904 when Joseph Rowntree wrote, in the context of the foundation of New Earswick: ‘I do not want to establish communities bearing the stamp of charity but rather of rightly ordered and self- governing communities’.

One highlight of the year came in January when we ran the Moving Forward Together conference in conjunction with two of our partners. A memorable moment at the conference came when Richard O’Neill asked participants to raise their hands if they were born in York. The show of hands revealed that a far higher percentage of the Gypsies & Travellers present had lived around York for all their lives than was the case for the professionals and others present from the ‘settled’ community.
