Greg Bond North Norfolk Nature Ramblings: macrophotogarphy

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.

12th April

12th April

After a morning in I went to Kelling Heath after lunch, mostly to do some macro photography. I did however bump into a Dartford warbler chasing a Whitethroat and, while watching these, a Red Kite drifted over. Nice start on a cool but sunny day.

Searching the gorse for photo opportunities eventually proved rewarding with Gorse Shieldbugs, an as yet unidentified spider, stacks of 7-spot Ladybirds and Buff-tailed Bumblebees gorging themselves on catkin pollen.
