Hi Jon

I am sorry to say that it is not available to the public as such. The background is that it is a non working dairy farm that has three trout pools that I have fished twice a week for a number of years. The farmer is a keen photographer; he is not too good on the computer. I helped him to remove red eye from a Tawny owl taken with a slide film, I also made some laminated signs for his hides (he hosted a young RSPB event last weekend) He is hosting a normal RSPB show this month I can get the date if you like you could then sound him out If you are keen. When I changed from a point and shot to the 20D I asked if I could visit with it and I have now taken all of my bird photos in his hides (six). I then asked if other people would be welcome but did not get a good reception to the question. The Farmer himself likes to run the fishery in a every wildlife friendly way and keeps the numbers of fisher people down. He feeds the hides up to three times a day but as the natural food improves for the birds he slowly stops feeding for the year. I am sorry I can’t be more helpful. I have attached the owl and a buzzard photo all taken by the farmer
