Abstract
THE first annual report of the Lundy Field Society, Lundy Island, shows that the year‘s working was more one of growth, exploration and experiment than of achievement. The total membership is now 127, of whom thirty-four have visited and worked on Lundy during the season. Most of the work already attempted has been concerned with the building up of ornithological records, although the difficulty of maintaining a Heligoland-type trap on Lundy has meant that work on birds so far has been mainly carried out by observation. The report contains a full list of the species recorded and also an account of various ecological surveys begun in different terrestrial and freshwater habitats on the island.
