2. Site Monitoring for Butterflies 1991 and
1992 Seasons
Volunteers are needed to make roughly monthly
(or more frequent) visits to one or two sites
per person. Full details of the survey method
will be sent to anyone interested - it is a new
survey method much simpler than the widely used
'Pollard Walk' and aimed more at identifying
the most diverse and important butterfly
communities rather than measuring year to year
changes in abundance. All volunteers will
receive summaries of each year's results and be
invited to winter meetings to review the
progress of the surveys.
Please write for full details, indicating any
particular habitats (whether nature reserves or
not) that you would like to survey.
