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 and today 17th/18th January

With the improving weather yesterday I went to Sheringham BO for the first time this year to help reprofile the mound round the seawatching hide.  Good exercise and a bonus in the shape of a female Marsh Harrier drifting east and a femal Goosander, also going east at sea.

With milder conditions I also put out the MV moth trap last night and almost immediately got a male Winter Moth which stayed around on the house wall to be photographed, whilst round the corner a 7-spot Ladybird had roused itself and was out for a stroll!
