A blustery day with rain early morning and again later. At least one Pied Flycatcher was still in the east end of the pines behind the Observatory with a Redstart also seen. Two Wheatears were also reported.
Moths were better today with Brimstone, Rustic, Archer's Dart and Setaceous Hebrew Character among the 10 species caught. Despite the weather a Holly Blue, Red Admiral and Small Tortoiseshell were around the buddleia.

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.
