Molly the Haris hawk
Take a photograph with Molly - she looks fierce but she's always ready to make new friends.

using a transmitter to track a hawk
The hawks fly with a transmitter attached. Try using a transmitter and receiver to track down a dummy bird concealed nearby - it's not as easy as you might think.

fish for trout in the river
Fish for trout in the river - they're harder to find since an otter moved in. Worms work best as bait.

Youngsters can spend hours paddling around and building dams in the shallow stream at the back of The Barn.

practicing your golf swing
An otter took the original Koi carp but now there are 58 goldfish - most of whom were born in the pond. Everybody enjoys helping to feed them.
