CORONAVIRUS UPDATE – Tuesday 29th DECEMBER 2020
Further to the announcement of a Tier 4 (Stay at home) lockdown in Norfolk, the NOA has closed all hides on its nature reserves. While we would discourage anyone from travelling too far during this crucial time, our reserves themselves will remain open for local visitors and usual charges will apply for non-members. Please follow government advice, and respect social distancing at all times. We will restore access to our facilities as and when government restrictions permit.
We are very grateful for your understanding and support.

With the strong northerly winds still persisting bird activity was understandably slow, with a thirty minute seawatch mid morning only produced five Gannets and two Little Terns. Activity around the reserve was largely restricted to adult birds providing young to nestlings or recently fledged young. A Cuckoo was seen early morning along the Broadwater and the leucistic Starling remained visible in amongst a flock of around forty Starlings out on the grazing marsh.
