We stayed in a nice B&B in Sculthorpe, right next to an old mill, which is now a nice pub and restaurant. Just down the road is Sculthorpe Moor Nature Reserve, which is run by the Hawk and Owl Trust. This is a very nice reserve with new hides and boardwalks.

Barn Owl - Seen from the grounds of our B&B across the river. Clearly a fair way off but still great to see. The garden also had Marsh Tits visiting and Water Voles, although we did not manage to see any here.

| We saw several Marsh Harriers, a Sparrowhawk and plenty of passerines. One of the most pleasing sightings was however a Water Vole, but too far away to photograph. |
 |
| Bullfinch - A pair visited one of the feeding stations close to one of the excellent hides. |
 |
| Common Buzzard - Several were soaring in the area. |
