Apart from the Review of the Y ear, Systematic List, Ringing Report etc a variety of articles are included. The first relates to breeding Rooks in south-east Norfolk with a request for help in undertaking a full county-wide census in 2006. Two relate to birds new to the county but seen in 2002 - Black-browed Albatross and Sykes’s Warbler - which have been accepted by the British Birds Rarities Committee, bringing the county list to 415 species. Another updates the status and habits of the Whooper Swan in Norfolk. Two articles are included relating to 2003 county rarities - the second Pallid Harrier and the third Bonaparte’s Gull. Last, but not least, is a detailed paper describing the history of the Serin in Norfolk and the first county breeding records. Acknowledgements The Report continues to be very much a team effort and my special thanks go to: • Neil Lawton - co-recorder, • Julian Bhalerao - co-ordinating photographs, • Justin Lansdell - commenting on and proof-reading articles, • Peter Lindsley - for his major role in the actual production of the Report. Particular thanks must also go to Peter Allard who has ‘retired’ from the Norfolk Bird Report team after 40 years involvement. Peter became an editorial assistant in 1 964 extracting material from the Scolt Head diary on behalf of Michael Seago. Over the years he has written many articles, compiled sections of the Systematic List, and been county recorder. He has also helped Michael and subsequently myself in many other ways. Fortunately he has no intention of hanging up his binoculars and I look forward to continuing to receive his copious records. However, without the help of many other people the Report in its present format would not be possible. My thanks also go to: • the inputters of the monthly records into the computerised recording system - Dave and Jacquie Bridges, Megan Crewe, Judy Dunmore, Vince Hanlon, Neil Lawton, Christine Stean and Pat Wileman; • those who drafted sections of the Systematic List - Peter Allard, Andy Benson, Dave and Jacquie Bridges, Andy Brown, Pete Clement, Keith Dye, Mark Eldridge, Mick Fiszer, Vince Hanlon, Phil Heath, Gary Hibberd, Ian Johnson, John Kemp, Justin Lansdell, Neil Lawton, Ben Murphy, Mick Saunt, Enid Stanford, Peter Wilson and John Williamson; • members of the County Records Committee; • authors of the articles in the Report, who all responded favourably to my requests on particular subjects; • the artists and photographers who have made their work freely available; • The Sarnia Charitable Trust for its continued assistance towards the cost of colour photographs; • Moss Taylor for supplying details of the ongoing Norfolk Bird Atlas; • Steve Wakeham for the meteorological infonnation; • Mike Rogers, Secretary of the British Birds Rarities Committee; 102 • all the many individual contributors and clubs/societies, and in particular Birdline East Anglia, Rare Bird Alert and Birdguides, who have contributed records; • Pat Wileman for her major help in the computerisation process; • finally my wife Judy without whose help, support and time the whole process would never happen. As I am computer illiterate she spends more and more time dealing with the electronic receipt of records and receiving and answering e-mails on my behalf 1 also have to thank her for her work with the typing and layout of the actual Report, particularly with working on the consistency of both writing and display style throughout. The County Records Committee (Mick Fiszer, John Kemp, Justin Lansdell, Richard Millington and John Williamson) considered a total of 124 records in the year; only 8 of these were rejected, mostly as a result of insufficient detail and not owing to an incorrect identification. At its previous annual meeting, relating to 2002 Records, the Committee discussed the problem of identification of Rose-winged Parakeets (previously called Ring-necked). Following a note to this effect in the 2002 Report there was not one 100% acceptable record in 2003 and hence records of parakeet sp are included in the Appendix, not the main Systematic List. At its recent meeting the Committee gave detailed consideration to the recording of rare forms, races and sub-species. The British Birds Rarities Committee is at present trying to determine which are diagnosable and the criteria necessary to identify them. Accordingly the County Records Committee felt that such records should be published in case they become Tost in the mists of time’ but that a caveat be included that they may not be considered acceptable by BBRC in due course. The Committee also reviewed the list of species needing submission of a written description or photographic evidence (and subject to acceptance) prior to publication and decided to retain the present list which is as follows: Taiga Bean Goose (away from Yare Rose-winged Parakeet Valley) Dark-breasted Bam Owl Greenland White-fronted Goose Bee-eater ‘Vagrant’ Canada Goose Short-toed Lark American Wigeon Tawny Pipit Ring-necked Duck Flava Wagtail (continental races except Surf Scoter Blue-headed and Grey-headed) Black-necked Grebe (at sea) Bluethroat (White-spotted only) Cory’s Shearwater Aquatic Warbler Great Shearwater Marsh Warbler Balearic Shearwater Melodious Warbler Storm Petrel Dartford Warbler Night Heron Pallas’s Warbler Purple Heron Chiffchaff {tristis race) White Stork Woodchat Shrike Spotted Crake Raven Corncrake Rose-coloured Starling Buff-breasted Sandpiper Serin Grey Phalarope (in flight at sea) Common Rosefinch Sabine’s Gull Ortolan Bunting Ring-billed Gull Little Bunting Caspian Gull 103 With regard to the submission of details, obviously the Committee would expect a far more detailed description of a species such as Ring-billed Gull (which is not only rare in the county but difficult to identify) than a species such as a White Stork. Written descriptions should consist of a brief note of the circumstances of the observation (weather, distance from bird, any other observers, etc), followed by a description of the actual bird(s) and details of any other species nearby for comparison. Written notes should state clearly how a bird was identified. Observers are also requested to include a note of their previous experience of the species and, if relevant, a brief outline of how any confusable species were eliminated. Copies of field sketches (however poor artistically) are often invaluable together with written field notes. It should be noted that on occasions observers may be asked for further details of species not contained in the above list - if records relate to unusual dates, localities, etc. Editorial Material: Articles for consideration, artwork, photographs and transparencies should continue to be submitted to me at 49 Nelson Road, Sheringham, Norfolk NR26 8DA. Submission of Records All records for the Systematic List should be submitted on a monthly basis to me at 49 Nelson Road, Sheringham, Norfolk NR26 8DA. Records can be sent as MsWord or Excel attachments by e-mail to giles.dunmore@,tiscali. co.uk but no photographs or sketches please - these must be sent by ordinary mail.

  • Norfolk Through a Lens
    NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service 2 NORFOLK THROUGH A LENS A guide to the Photographic Collections held by Norfolk Library & Information Service History and Background The systematic collecting of photographs of Norfolk really began in 1913 when the Norfolk Photographic Survey was formed, although there are many images in the collection which date from shortly after the invention of photography (during the 1840s) and a great deal which are late Victorian. In less than one year over a thousand photographs were deposited in Norwich Library and by the mid- 1990s the collection had expanded to 30,000 prints and a similar number of negatives. The devastating Norwich library fire of 1994 destroyed around 15,000 Norwich prints, some of which were early images. Fortunately, many of the most important images were copied before the fire and those copies have since been purchased and returned to the library holdings. In 1999 a very successful public appeal was launched to replace parts of the lost archive and expand the collection. Today the collection (which was based upon the survey) contains a huge variety of material from amateur and informal work to commercial pictures. This includes newspaper reportage, portraiture, building and landscape surveys, tourism and advertising. There is work by the pioneers of photography in the region; there are collections by talented and dedicated amateurs as well as professional art photographers and early female practitioners such as Olive Edis, Viola Grimes and Edith Flowerdew. More recent images of Norfolk life are now beginning to filter in, such as a village survey of Ashwellthorpe by Richard Tilbrook from 1977, groups of Norwich punks and Norfolk fairs from the 1980s by Paul Harley and re-development images post 1990s.

Smith and K. O’Hara Also in attendance: 1 member of the public & District Councillor Saul Penfold Clerk: Mrs. Sarah Martin. 1 Open forum for Public Participation: an opportunity to hear from members of the public A member of the public spoke about a Worstead Community Orchard as an environmentally focused community project, highlighting the benefits including involving the community; improving local biodiversity and educating those interested in being involved. Three options were suggested: centralised orchard; wildlife corridors; and native community woodland. It was raised that there are various organisations which would support this project and funding/free trees available. Potential sites were raised and suggested next steps put forward. It was discussed contacting the local landowners and scoping suggested sites. Member of the public left 19.20. 2 District / County Councillor County Councillor John Timewell sent apologies to the meeting. District Councillor Saul Penfold reported: • Budget setting at full District Council – proposing a freeze to NNDC element of Council Tax – this will not mean a reduction in services or schemes as there is a budget surplus. • Covid cases down 30% per week. • North Walsham community centre is now a vaccination hub, with the car park dedicated for this use. • Grants have still been made available to local groups. 3 To open the Council meeting and consider approval of apologies, if applicable.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • 233 08 SD50 Environment Permitting Decision Document
    Environment Agency permitting decisions Bespoke permit We have decided to grant the permit for Didlington Farm Poultry Unit operated by Mr Robert Anderson, Mrs Rosamond Anderson and Mr Marcus Anderson. The permit number is EPR/EP3937EP. We consider in reaching that decision we have taken into account all relevant considerations and legal requirements and that the permit will ensure that the appropriate level of environmental protection is provided. Purpose of this document This decision document: • explains how the application has been determined • provides a record of the decision-making process • shows how all relevant factors have been taken into account • justifies the specific conditions in the permit other than those in our generic permit template. Unless the decision document specifies otherwise we have accepted the applicant’s proposals. Structure of this document • Key issues • Annex 1 the decision checklist • Annex 2 the consultation, web publicising responses. EPR/EP3937EP/A001 Page 1 of 12 Key Issues 1) Ammonia Impacts There are two Special Areas for Conservation (SAC) within 3.4km, one Special Protection Area (SPA) within 850m, seven Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) within 4.9km and six Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) within 1.4km of the facility, one of which is within 250m. Assessment of SAC and SPA If the Process Contribution (PC) is below 4% of the relevant critical level (CLe) or critical load (CLo) then the farm can be permitted with no further assessment. Initial screening using Ammonia Screening Tool (AST) v4.4 has indicated that the PC for Breckland SAC, Norfolk Valley Fens SAC and Breckland SPA is predicted to be greater than 4% of the CLe for ammonia.
