Little Lakes WILDLIFE AUDIT Wyre Forest Facilitation Group WILDLIFE AUDIT 2019 LITTLE LAKES GOLF COURSE Name of property: Little Lakes Golf Course Location: 3kms SW of Bewdley Landowners: Little Lakes Leisure Address: Little Lakes Golf Club, Lye Head, Bewdley, Worcestershire DY12 2UZ Contact: Nick Fernihough [email protected] 01299 266400 Land designation: None Countryside Stewardship scheme: None Acreage 250 acres in total, but not all surveyed Recorder: Rosemary Winnall, with help from Janet and Clive Prince, and Mike Averill Dates of visits: 4th, 6th and 17th June 2019 AERIAL VIEW of golf course showing sites surveyed N Google Geology The eastern half of the audit area is made up of rocks from the Devonian St Maughans formation, sedimentary clays and sandstones with bands of conglomerate. The western half is made up of younger rocks from the Carboniferous Etruria formation with sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates. Drainage The Gladder Brook runs across the site from NW to SE in a wooded Dingle. There is a small man-made spring-fed pond on one of the greens. Links to wider The steeply sloping wooded Gladder Brook valley acts as an important landscape wildlife corridor linking the ancient semi-natural woodlands Arley Wood (SSSI) Ribbesford Wood and Rock Coppice (SSSI) to the main Wyre Forest (2kms to the north), and to the River Severn valley (3km to the east). Archaeology None known. Current use and The golf course is mowed on a regular basis and some of the grass is management collected. The rough grassland/scrub is left uncut, and there is some rabbit grazing. There is a reed bed system in place for the clubhouse and chalets which drains down into Gladder Brook. The whole area is managed with nature conservation in mind. Site 1 This bank slopes steeply down to the NW to one of the greens. The steepest section near the bottom of the rough has the largest diversity of plants thanks to rabbit grazing which has restricted the growth of some of the coarser grasses. Dyer’s Greenweed, Betony, Bird’s-foot- trefoil and Meadow Cranesbill are present (C. Vincent). Rough (R) Several other areas of rough grassland/scrub were surveyed. Although the majority of these had many course grasses, small parts showed more plant diversity. The long grass had good populations of grass pyralid moths, mirid bugs, spiders, grasshoppers and crickets – the latter still immature. The flowering brambles and thistles in the scrub provide good nectaring for insects. Dingle (D) The Dingle was checked at four spots (D on the aerial view) although access was not easy with the steep slopes. There was very little water in the brook and not many aquatic invertebrates recorded. Flatworms, leeches, freshwater shrimps and some caddis larvae were found. The woodland was rich in Bluebells, Ramsons, Wood Anemones, Dog’s Mercury, Yellow Archangel in the shaded parts, indicating it is old woodland. In places there is invasive Himalayan Balsam. Pond This is an interesting pond with an open sunny aspect and good marginal vegetation. It was rich in water beetles, water boatmen, Backswimmers, dragonfly and mayfly larvae, and small snails. Moorhen was present with young, and Azure Damselflies were egg-laying amongst the Water Plantain. Habitats and features Site 1 had the best plant diversity on the steeper ground. The pond was of note rich in aquatic invertebrates. The rough grassland/scrub ecotomes were good for insects. Species of note The Worm Slug (first recorded in Britain in 1972) was found under some logs near the Clubhouse. We have very few records of Pisids – very small bivalve freshwater molluscs, and these will have to be identified by an expert. It was good to see the Red-girdled Mining Bee nectaring on Germander Speedwell as it often does. Concerns There is some Himalayan Balsam along the more open parts of the Dingle, but it is restricted by scrub growth and mowing. Further recording The weather was uncharacteristically cold, wet and cloudy during the weeks of the survey. A summer visit on a hot sunny day would provide many more insect records across the site.

    The Butterfly Year in Haiku Richard Stewart Under the deep snow And beneath daggers of ice New life is waiting. Late February From a pine's darkness A calm day with warming sun One red admiral seeks sun The first butterfly. And the last nectar. Out of long darkness Juicy chunks of plum A comma with widespread wings A dripping pile on the lawn Soaking up the sun. Feeding butterflies. Prefers hedge garlic Two feeding commas Warmed by rays of evening sun On fermenting blackberries Roosting orange tip. Out of the wind's edge. On such a dull day On grey paving slabs Even a single small white Wide wings of small tortoiseshells Brightens the landscape. Basking in the sun. From a coal blackness Flying to the feast To this large eyed radiance Vanessids land on the first Peacock's open wings. Sunlit buddleia. Along the leaf spine A bright swallowtail Brimstone caterpillar rests Wings luminous in the sun Green on green unseen. Be still and thankful. Green hairstreaks emerge In the bramble glade With a scent of yellow gorse Large whites glide like admirals Heavy on the breeze. Through shafts of sunlight. Two peacocks spiral Up and up into blue sky Drifting with white clouds. It is pleasing that after I wrote that I wanted to see us achieving even more, the Upper Thames branch continues to be increasingly busy and successful, so, thank you to the members who came forward and allowed us to expand our efforts ever further. One of the areas where we could still use some help is in response to requests for us to attend fairs and shows.

  • Moth List 2017
    Sandwich Bay Bird Observatory Trust Guilford Road, Sandwich Bay, Sandwich, Kent CT13 9PF [email protected] www.sbbot.org.uk 01304 – 617341 Registered Charity no. 289343 A systematic list of the Moths of Sandwich Bay st (Updated to 31 December 2017) A Systematic List of the Moths of Sandwich Bay (to 31 December 2017) Introduction This list was first prepared by Peter and Pauline Heathcote in 2003, detailing records of 436 macros and 292 micros up to the end of 2002. They updated the list to include records to the end of 2008 and the list was augmented with records for 2009. It was subsequently reviewed by Francis Solly in November/December 2009 and some records for which confirmatory details were required, or which clearly resulted from misidentification, were removed. Details of these species can be found in the appendix at the back of this report. In 2018 it has been further updated by Ian Hunter, Macro Moth recorder for Kent, with advice from Dave Shenton, Micro Moth recorder for Kent, in the light of the specific evidence requirements of the National Moth Recording Scheme published in 2016. The National Status for each moth is shown to give an indication of how rare or otherwise the species is in a National context. As a broad guide for moths their status is based on their UK distribution measured in terms of occurrence in 10-kilometre squares per the National Grid system as follows; RDB1 Endangered. Usually in five or fewer 10-km squares. RDB2 Vulnerable. Small populations and declining. RDB3 Rare.

    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR23 P (Capel-le-Ferne and Folkestone Warren East) The cliff-top provides an excellent vantage point for monitoring visual migration and has been well-watched by Dale Gibson, Ian Roberts and others since 1991. The first promontory to the east of the Cliff-top Café is easily accessible and affords fantastic views along the cliffs and over the Warren. The elevated postion can enable eye-level views of arriving raptors which often use air currents over the Warren to gain height before continuing inland. A Rough-legged Buzzard, three Black Kites, three Montagu’s Harriers and numerous Honey Buzzards, Red Kites, Marsh Harriers and Ospreys have been recorded. It is also perfect for watching arriving swifts and hirundines which may pause to feed over the Warren. Alpine Swift has occurred on three occasions and no less than nine Red- rumped Swallows have been logged here. Looking west from near the Cliff-top Café towards Copt Point and Folkestone Looking east from near the Cliff-top Café towards Abbotscliffe The Warren below the Cliff-top Café Looking west from the bottom of the zigzag path Visual passage will also comprise Sky Larks, Starlings, thrushes, wagtails, pipits, finches and buntings in season, whilst scarcities have included Tawny Pipit, Golden Oriole, Serin, Hawfinch and Snow Bunting. Other oddities have included Purple Heron, Short-eared Owl, Little Ringed Plover, Ruff and Ring-necked Parakeet, whilst in June 1992 a Common Rosefinch was seen on the cliff edge. Below the Cliff-top Café there is a zigzag path leading down into the Warren.
