Chris's big fat bioblitz!
One of the sites managed by 3CG (Cliddesden Community Conservation Group) in Hampshire has been selected to feature in the Chris Packham's Big Fat Bioblitz campaign
“Nature Reserves Are Not Enough”.
Chris Packham's 10 day Bioblitz - "Nature Reserves are not Enough" centres around visiting various sites each day, highlighting great reserves, wild spaces and community projects. Starting in July 2018 he will be visiting 48 sites over 10 days throughout the UK. Starting in Scotland, to the North of England, over to Northern Ireland, back into Wales, to the Midlands and down to the South of England
With the help of regular volunteers, wildlife groups, species and habitat specialists, Chris and teams of experts aim to bioblitz sites, whereby the species discovered count towards a final total. All funds raised by crowd-funding will be donated to The Autistic Society and to Conservation.
Chris visited us in March 2018 to film his promo video for the campaign, and look who were his extras!

On one of the hottest days of the year we blitzed the meadow, recording all the species of flora and fauna we could find. We came up with a total of 386 species which is just a snapshot but immensely satisfying. Thanks to the lovely ladies in the village we were well supplied with homemade cakes and hot and cold drinks to keep us going. Thank you to all the taxon experts and data recorders who bravely combatted the heat (30 degrees C) and made the day such a success.
