Mon May 23rd 2022
10.30am | General Meeting. Laindon Common. Car park at TQ673929. Interesting relic heathland in need of recent survey in all groups. | Sat Jun 4th 2022

Areas of interest are likely to include Poplars Wood, Poplars Shaw and adjacent bridleway edges, the reservoir edges and the River Roding on the south-east side. | Wed Jun 29th 2022
8pm till late | Hazeleigh Wood near Maldon. Joint Moth trapping event with Colchester Natural History Society. Meet in car park off Hazeleigh Hall Lane, nearest postcode CM9 6GT. The grid ref TL834038. The site is rather out of the way, so to speak. Just follow the postcode/grid reference details and you will eventually see a sandwich board on the left, about a mile along Hazeleigh Hall Lane that points you in to the car park. This is a private site and a small £2.00 contribution will be due. We must thank the owners Maureen and John Bissell for the invitation to this moth evening in this almost unique working oak and hazel coppice woodland, first mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Please bring your own moth traps and generators if you have them; if not please do come along anyway. By this time, the Small Black Arches should be on the wing at its only site in Eastern England. | Wed Jul 13th 2022
8pm till late | Gosbecks Archaeological Park, Colchester. Joint moth trapping event with Colchester Natural History Society. Meet in the car park off Maldon Road, nearest postcode CO3 0SH. Grid ref TL967228, what3words: think.prove.shaky Bring your own moth traps and generators if you have them; if not please do come along anyway. This site produced over 180 species in one evening in 2018; situated next to the Roman River Valley, the potential for interesting discoveries none-the-less remains very high. |
