Complete moth data for 2007 |
| 2007 was a poor year for moths on the Sulehay Nature Reserve.
2007 was a 'washout' for moths with many days of heavy rain during the peak moth activity period of
June and July. As a consequence, total moth numbers (3078) was almost half of figures for 2004, 2005, and 2006.
The number of species was down to 222 from around 280 for those previous years. Let hope 2008 will be kinder
for the moths of Northamptonshire.
Our full year results following regular moth monitoring on the reserve are now available on our
'Wildlife Reports' page.

Images from
www.bioimages.org.uk |
| The bioimages website appears to be fully operational again, and our
links to that website are fully functional again. This is a very useful
resource and is used extensively by the SulehayNatureReserve website for
example photographs, particularly from the June/July 'Lookout for . . . ' pages.

Management plans |
| Each winter and summer, we prepare a work program detailing tasks we plan to
undertake during those periods. Typically, we work on the winter program
from September through to March. The summer work schedule covers the plans
from April to August.
We are now reaching the end of the 2007 summer program which is published on
this website (see the 'Management Plans' page), and are currently planning our
winter schedule. |
