Suffolk Wildlife Trust needs our help!

ByDawn

Quick post for all you locals out there, Suffolk Wildlife Trust wants to buy Knettishall Heath. They’ve already secured a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, but they need to raise £100,000 by the end of January to complete the purchase.

Suffolk Wildlife Trust looks after my local reserve – Redgrave and Lopham Fen, and they do a really fantastic job there.

It would be great to see Knettishall Heath managed as a nature reserve, there’s already so much wonderful wildlife there, and plenty of great walks too.

If you’d like to help them safeguard Knettishall Heath for ever, you can donate here: http://www.justgiving.com/Knettishall

    Went to the Norfolk coast to try and photograph the seals this afternoon, seen as the weather person said it would brighten up. Unfortunately it didn’t and it was grey skies all the way. Still, I managed to get a shot of this little beauty, and as always it was amazing to watch and hear…

  • Teased by the Turtle Dove

    Well the last few days have been pretty frustrating. Attempting to get some more photos of the Turtle dove, but not doing very well! A mix of sunshine and showers have made for interesting and difficult lighting conditions. Here are a few that I’ve managed to process today, still got more to go through though….

  • A Winter Visitor

    ByDawn

    Fieldfares are another one of my favourite birds. These gorgeous winter visitors come here from Scandinavia, presumably to escape the harsh winter weather. They flock together, feeding on windfall apples in the old orchard, conversing noisily with scolding chattering calls, unmistakeable with their beautiful slaty blue grey head, brown back, and cream speckled chest. This…

  • Winter Wonderland

    My first meaningful photography trip out this year, and what a beautiful morning. There’s nothing better at this time of year, crisp and frosty, and great light. Headed over to the fen and started trying to capture the frosty reeds and fen plants, a tough job with a 500mm lens, but at least it gives…

  • The King of the River

    The Norfolk Broads, a watery wonderland that has to be one of my favourite places. At dawn and dusk it’s a magical wild world, that huge Norfolk sky reflected in the mirror still surface of the river, giving you the impression of being held suspended in an infinite space, immersed in the bluest sky, surrounded…

  • Spring on the Fen

    ByDawn

    Spring has sprung down on the fen, as the sun rises in the cold morning air, I’m greeted by the glorious summer song of the Sedge Warbler. A mix of musical trills and warbles, mechanical rasping, sweet whistles and low purrs, combined seemingly randomly like the best jazz singers. What wonderful medicine for the human…
