Brancaster Mussels in Season
Location:
Along the north Norfolk coast
Enjoy our local speciality, fresh mussels from Brancaster Staithe Harbour
These delicious shellfish can be enjoyed during months with an 'r' in them, so roughly from September to April depending on how warm early autumn and spring are.
Mussels can be enjoyed in pubs, restaurants and cafes along the coast. Perfect accompaniment to a stay at Deepdale Backpackers and Camping.
Flights of Geese
Location:
Along the north Norfolk coast
Many thousands of geese visit the north Norfolk coast during the Winter months.
The skies are filled with them and it is an amazing spectacle of nature, which is well worth seeing. Happens from roughly mid October to early February.
A free natural spectacle
Pensthorpe Floodlit Bird Feeds
Time:
15:00
Location:
Pensthorpe Nature Reserve, A1067, Fakenham, North Norfolk
|
For a fascinating insight into all the rare and colourful birds at Pensthorpe Nature Reserve this autumn and winter, come to one of the floodlit feeds taking place from 24th October 2009 to 28th February 2010.
The feeds are free to watch if you have paid to enter the reserve or spent £2 or more in the shop. Otherwise there is just a small charge of just £2.
And there's no need to worry about the cold, because you can enjoy the floodlit feeds from the warm and comfortable Viewing Gallery. From there you will get a full commentary from the reserve's wardens who will tell you about the breed of birds that are coming in to feed and why, and will then be on hand to answer any questions you may have about birds, and winter feeding here or at home.
Deb Jordan, co-owner of Pensthorpe Nature Reserve says: "Our floodlit feeds have been very popular in the past because it's an ideal way to see the birds up close and learn more about then during the colder times of the year. Our wardens are very well informed and often the questions by our visitors after the floodlit feed are about how they can best feed the birds in their own gardens through the winter."

opening times.
Brancaster Staithe Women's Institute (WI)
Time:
19:30
Location:
Brancaster Staithe Village Hall, North Norfolk Coast
|
Brancaster Staithe WI is part of The National Federation of Women's Institutes (NFWI), the largest voluntary organisation for women in the UK with 205,000 members in England, Wales and the Islands. We play a unique role in providing women with educational opportunities and the chance to build new skills, to take part in a wide variety of activities and to campaign on issues that matter to them and their communities.
We are a very friendly group of about 24 members and meet on the first Monday in the month at Brancaster Staithe Village Hall at 7.30pm. Our meetings are varied with a short business meeting followed by a speaker or demonstrator with plenty of time for refreshments and socialising. We usually send a delegate to County and National conferences and arrange visits to local places of interest and theatre shows. We are also part of the Nelson group, which is made up of neighbouring WIs, giving us the opportunity to visit other WIs and socialise with other WI members throughout the year at special events. We are also involved in the local community with projects, fundraising and supporting local events.
We welcome all visitors, new members and visiting WI members holidaying in this lovely part of Norfolk to come and join us in an evening of fun, friendship and socialising.
