Features Of The Serpent Trail

Occasional Publication Volume 151

Field Studies Council

2012

"This long-distance footpath in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire, the Serpent Trail links the remaining fragments of lowland heath in the western part of the South Downs National Park. This new 12-panel fold-out chart features some of the special animals and plants for which this area is justly famous."

Where to Watch Birds: Kent, Surrey & Sussex

Don Taylor, Jeffrey Wheatley and Paul James

2009

"The south-eastern corner of England is a densely populated region but one which holds many rich bird habitats. For example, on the south coast of East Sussex and Kent there are undisturbed shingle beaches supporting nationally important tern colonies, and inland there are Surrey heaths, important for many nationally scarce species like Dartford Warbler and Woodlark. In north Kent there is a network of important sites along the Swale estuary which are of great importance for passage and wintering waders and wildfowl. These counties also often attract large numbers of passage migrants, including vagrant rarities from the continent. This guide explores the best birding sites in Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Several new sites have been added to this revised and updated fifth edition. Each site is described in terms of 'Habitat', 'Species', 'Access' and 'Birds', and the volume is illustrated throughout with line drawings and maps of each site. The manual seeks to enable birders to plan productive trips at any time of the year."

Birds Of Surrey

Jeffrey J. Wheatley

2007

"This is a book in which the author looks beyond the perception that Surrey is an overcrowded county with little space for birdlife. He reveals an attractive county of compact and contrasting landscapes governed by abrupt variations in the underlying geology. There is a corresponding and impressive diversity of birdlife, across a biological recording area that stretches from South London and the Thames to the Weald. The inclusion of Spelthorne in modern Surrey provides additional reservoir groups with their associated waterfowl. The time perspectives are long, tracing the history of the birds and their landscapes back through the recorded history, archaeology, fossils and geology of the land that is or has been Surrey. The book includes: a systematic list and species accounts that include historical background; breeding distribution maps; analysis of breeding surveys; population estimates; charts and histograms; ground and aerial photographs and vignettes, paintings and line drawings."

2003

"The southeastern corner of England is a densely populated region but one which holds many rich bird habitats. For example, on the south coast of East Sussex and Kent there are undisturbed shingle beaches supporting nationally important tern colonies, and inland there are Surrey heaths, important for many nationally scarce species like Dartford Warbler and Woodlark. In north Kent there is a network of important sites along the Swale estuary which are of great importance for passage and wintering waders and wildfowl. These counties also often attract large numbers of passage migrants, including vagrant rarities from the continent. This manual explores the best birding sites in Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Several new sites have been added to this revised and updated fourth edition. Each site is described in terms of habitat, species, access and timing, and the volume is illustrated throughout with line drawings and maps of each site. The manual seeks to enable birders to plan productive trips at any time of the year."

The Weald

S.W. Wooldridge & Frederick Goldring

The New Naturalist 26

1953

"A country of rolling downs, quiet woods and green fields, the Weald occupies the greater part of the counties of Kent, Surrey, and Sussex, with a fringe of Hampshire. It has a marked community of its own, yet within the rim of chalk downs that forms its natural boundary is a remarkable diversity of sandy heathlands to rich loams, from waterless chalklands to tidal marshes. Professor Wooldrige put the results of a lifetime's research and exploration into this New Naturalists volume. It remains an unrivalled introduction to the understanding and enjoyment of this lovely region and of its natural history in the widest sense."
