Submitting Records
General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)
By submitting records to the County Recorder you agree that those records may be collated and disseminated manually or electronically, including via the Internet, for conservation, environmental decision making, education, research and other public benefit uses in accordance with Butterfly Conservation's data access policy. Names and contact details of recorders will be used for administration and verification purposes only. Your contact details will not be passed to other parties without your consent, whilst your name will form part of the record that is collated and disseminated in accordance with Butterfly Conservation's privacy policy.

Important: Full details of sightings should be recorded using one of the channels below please. (A report on social media is not sufficient).

Adnoto, or
the iRecord Butterflies App (please report abundances using digits NOT letters which only report a vague quantity, e.g. B = 2-9, which isn't very helpful!!), or
the BNM Online portal, or
the iRecord App (please report abundances using digits NOT letters which only report a vague quantity, e.g. B = 2-9, which isn't very helpful!!), or
the iRecord website, or
A spreadsheet like this, or
Email, or
Paper, here's a suitable form (PDF)

Do NOT use iNaturalist. Data entered into iNaturalist will NOT be used. There are plenty of alternatives above!

Please do not submit records by more than one route as this leads to duplicate records which have to be found and removed, causing unnecessary work.
The cut-off date for records to be included in the annual report in Bedfordshire Naturalist is 31st January, but please don't leave them all until then! Get them in a soon as you can please.
Records entered into the iRecord Butterflies App and iRecord website will usually only be examined at the end of the season, as will records entered into the WCBS and UKBMS online systems, which are also acceptable for record submission for those special types of transect surveys. Records are not normally marked as accepted or rejected within iRecord itself but all valid records will be incorporated into the Bedfordshire database.
If you have used an electronic recording system other than Adnoto or iRecord, please extract the records yourselves and email them as a spreadsheet to Keith before the end of December.

Communication from BC Head Office:

"Updated guidance for butterfly and moth recorders relating to Coronavirus Covid-19, 14/05/2020"

Following the Prime Minister's address on 10th May, and subsequent official guidance, there have been significant changes to the restrictions brought in to reduce the spread of coronavirus. However, there is also now divergence between the UK nations on restrictions relating to outdoor activities. In England, although the key message is to stay at home as much as possible, the revised measures now allow people to spend leisure time outdoors (rather than just exercising once a day) and to travel to outdoor locations within England, provided that social distancing rules are followed. People in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland must follow the specific rules in those parts of the UK.

As a result, in England only, it is now possible for butterfly and moth recording to resume for people who are not shielding or self-isolating. Recorders must, at all times, continue to observe social distancing guidelines, including that you cannot record in groups of more than two (excluding members of your own household) and ensuring that you remain at least 2 metres away from anyone outside your household. If you have coronavirus symptoms, or if you or any of your household are self-isolating, you should stay at home.

You should also be aware that nature reserves and other sites may not be open to the public or may be maintaining local restrictions that do not permit butterfly and moth recording. Further government advice is available on the new restrictions in England and on staying safe outdoors.

I therefore will resume posting reports from any Bedfordshire location (assuming no trespass has ocurred). Keith, 14/05/20

"Updated guidance for butterfly and moth recorders relating to Coronavirus Covid-19, 15/04/2020

The UK Government delivered a very strong and clear message on 23rd March 2020 with their updated guidance:

The single most important action we can all take, in fighting coronavirus, is to stay at home in order to protect the NHS and save lives.

Bearing this in mind, Butterfly Conservation strongly advises that you must not leave home in order to record butterflies and moths. This is not a permitted reason to leave home and would be a breach of Government restrictions. Recording of butterflies and moths seen at home, or when leaving home for permitted purposes (in line with current Government information), can continue.

We will monitor this situation closely and will produce revised guidance when the time is right. Please check for any updates at www.butterfly-conservation.org.
We recommend that you continue to follow the UK Government's response to the situation at https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus.
If you have any doubts or queries regarding this advice, please feel free to contact the recording team at recording@butterfly-conservation.org".

In support of this I will therefore only be posting reports that appear to be from gardens until the situation changes. Keith, 24/03/20
