We moved from Essex to North Norfolk in August 2006 and I have spent a lot of time since then photographing the nature around me, mostly close up and macro stuff. My "patch" is the 10Km square TG2035 though I spend most time between Overstrand, where we live, and Trimingham.



I also bird regularly elsewhere in Norfolk and volunteer at Cley.





I have a photo site at http://overstrandnature.fotopic.net/ but wanted a bit more detail so I thought I'd have a go at a blog detailing what I see locally, as well as on trips abroad

Most of the photos have been taken with Canon digital equipment, or the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1. I still however mostly use a camera to record what I see, rather than set out to photograph something.

Yesterday 24th Jan

Another work party at SBO, followed by a productive walk round the fields that produced a couple each of Snipe and Ruff, two Firecrests and a Short-eared Owl.  However, I missed a Bittern locally which had temporarily been sharing a ploughed beet field with a Tundra Bean Goose which was still there, so all was not totally lost!  A good local patch tick, though they must fly over with the Pinkfeet sometimes.
