Blog

I blog about nature in the Norfolk countryside and about my wildlife garden. My blog blends digital photos with an analogue nature journal.

Nature journalling blends nature observation and citizen science with a written diariy or art journal to build a deeper connection with nature and cultivate curiosity, creativity and flow.

November Nature Diary

2/11/25 Wonderful sighting of a pair of Green Woodpeckers on the ant mounds in the back garden foraging for ants?

6/11/25 A still, mild day. Beautiful autumn foliage colours. Cute little Wren foraging amongst the lavender stalks.

16/11/25 Storm Claudia augured leaf fall finally. After a mild first half of the month it turned much colder.

19/11/25 Early snow showers and ice overnight. Very cold for the time of year. makes me wonder what sort of winter we will have this year?

21/11/25 Pigeons with beautiful salmon chest markings perching on the swing.

26/11/25 A hazy blue sky at sunset.

29/11/25 The flower buds, pistachio green, on the Winter Cherry are just beginning to burst.
