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.

1st-5th April 2010

Following the excitements of late March, early April has been quiet both birding and with the moth trap. The latter picked up over the last two nights with milder, drier conditions producing our latest ever March Moth and decent numbers of Common Quakers. Migrant birds are still at a premium as yet with only Blackcap added to the year list so far. The sunny weather on Sunday 4th did bring out a couple of Small Tortoiseshells, the first butterflies I’ve seen for a while. Cley last Thursday 1st was quiet enough with the freezing strong westerlies that I spent some time photographing landscapes!
