We want to know what species are present in our parish and where they are. To find out, we will be doing some organised surveys, but also we want to encourage everyone to record what they see.
We have chosen 20 species that we are especially interested in knowing more about and we are making the reporting of these as easy as possible.
We are offering two methods for reporting sightings. The easiest, which can be used for our ’20 Selected Species’ is via our website form below
The other method is via iRecord which requires more detail but goes directly to a national biological recording system that we can retrieve data from - but you’ll need to add our activity code when you fill in the form.
We’re keen to understand which gardens in the parish have been visited in the past by hedgehogs and also, just as importantly, which ones haven’t. We'd also like to know the locations of other areas in the parish where hogs have been spotted. Please help us map out historical hedgehog sightings using the form below. This initial survey will run until Sat 3rd April. Results will be published as a map on our website in April.
