Our dynamic habitats are home to many enigmatic species with a handful a handful major crowd pleasers.

We are frequently asked where is the best place to see kingfishers, otters, grass snakes and marsh harriers and are any tips to increase the chances of seeing them during visits. Unfortunately, there is no definite answer as all species adapt their behavior depending on their surroundings, food availability and seasonal shifts.

With that said, we have an intimate knowledge of the reserve and the species that rely on our habitats. We have developed the Iconic Species flyers to help share information about the ecology of our favorite and most loved species to help you plan your visit to Tophill Low.

For more current species sightings please visit our Facebook page to see what we've been up around the reserve and what records have been reported.
