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.

Saturday 24th September 2016
A breezy day today with few new migrants, however the Velvet Scoter was again seen offshore together with a Red-throated Diver, 30 Gannets, 3 Arctic Skuas and 25 Sandwich Terns. Two Great White Egrets passed Gore Point at some distance offshore heading west, and on the corner of Thornham sea wall 5 Whinchats, a Stonechat and 3 Wheatears were of note.
