NBIS actively encourages the recording of wildlife and is always interested in receiving additional records. Even records of species that are common and widespread are of use, as there are many places within our area for which we hold few or no records.

It is possible to make useful records with no specialist knowledge. If you are unsure of your identification please let us know and we will put you in touch with a local expert who will be able to help.
There are also many chances to get involved in wildlife recording, by taking part in a wildlife survey and sending your records to Natural Connections. Natural Connections is a Norfolk Wildlife Trust (NWT) project working with and supported by NBIS, to encourage people to send in wildlife records. NWT have compiled a list of plants and animals they are particularly interested in recording in Norfolk, including barn owls, badgers and glow worms.
Can you help? If so, please see the Natural Connections Website.
SEND US YOUR RECORDS DIRECTLY BY USING OUR NBIS RECORDING SPREADSHEET OR NBIS SURVEY CARD and emailing to nbis@norfolk.gov.uk
