A Living Landscape

A Living Landscape is the way that the landscape along the Norfolk Coast is described by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, which operates a number of reserves.

We are going to be visiting the trust's property at Cley next the Sea.

Cley is a village which has a long history of involvement with conservation and particularly with bird watching. The village is protected by marshes and reed beds, which are also a habitat for wildlife.

Coastal management on the cliffs at Cromer

Here is a new type of coastal management being tried out on the cliffs in Cromer. Goats have been put into a fenced off area of the cliff to graze on the vegetation that is growing there... I went to Cromer today to take a photo of them, and other parts of the town.
Why were they introduced?

Here's a local news story on the project:
