Heysham Obs
Will upload some pics tomorrow - thanks Janet
Don't forget the day-flying moth and butterfly event on Saturday 20th meeting 0930 Heysham NR car park and spending most of the morning on Middleton NR
Eyed Hawk-moth in the trap this morning
The observatory was set up in 1980. It involves ringing,'vis mig' counts (including seabirds) and general monitoring in the Heysham Nature reserve/power stations/harbour area. The statutory moth trap is in place and also a daily log for butterflies, dragonflies etc. We share an office, kindly provided by EDF Energy, with the County Wildlife Trust. This is located next to the Nature Reserve car park. Do call in. Please leave sightings in the letterbox, ESPECIALLY 'fly-by' seabirds.
