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.

Portugal

Have just got back from 2 weeks on the Algarve and a report/photos are in prep.  Highlights were 24 species of dragons/damsels and about the same number of butterflies, with quite a few new ones.  the weather was mostly hot and mostly sunny so birds were at a premium, especially raptors but there were plenty of waders in our second week at Laguna Salgados.  This has to be one of the best sites in the area, if only they would leave it alone!!
