I do sometimes get confused between the role of parish council and borough
council. Often the same people sit on both despite this appearing to be a
conflict. Do you have a list of members to write to?
It seems almost routine for some developers to clear land (or spray it) prior

Great tits are well known for emptying out queen bumblebees. Each bird tends to
have it's own way of doing things, so sometimes they have the thorax cleaned
out and sometimes the abdomen, the finished bee looking like a soft boiled egg.

After hearing about lots of dead bumble bees at Eccelesbourne meadow in
Hastings Country Park I took a walk and yes there are dead bees all over the
meadow. I examined a few and they nearly all have emptied out abdomens.
Abdomens with no contents. I thought this was likely to be some creature

Is it possible to record a habitat? If so how?
One of the best spots in Hastings Country Park is a soft cliff face that
decends to a seepage habitat. I think that the seepage might not be noted.

Dear Stephen,
I knew about this last week as a lady that I work with mentioned how upset
she was by what she saw. I was able to forward this message to her, she was

I never saw one eat a bird but is it possible that they could affect
woodland ecology in other ways. Any experts out there that could answer
this?

Today in Hastings the weather was misty and cold, I didn't expect to see
many birds during my walk. But I was pleasantly surprised.
At the viewpoint at the cliff top Ecclesbourne Glen I watched a Raven. It

a sign?

to outweigh all other considerations even SSSIs. Look at the ridiculous
attempt to develop Lydd Airport for another example.
I manage www.brede.org.uk and will add this meeting there.

you might like to visit the LNR and meadow and consider if you think two
large blocks of flats with underground parking for 35 cars will affect the

I look forward to any comments.

Did anyone else watch the spectacle as the starlings got ready to roost on
Eastbourne pier on Sunday?
It was a wonderful site as the black cloud of starlings created various
impressive shapes in the sky. Just as they seemed to be about to settle a

Dear Henri,
I am interested as I am looking for sites to survey for my MSc dissertation.
This involves spiders and vacuum and timed hand-searching.

I have heard the same story and think that it is possible that some road kills
