Donna Nook (FULL)
Donna Nook is a nature reserve on the North Lincolnshire coast, where in November hundreds of grey seals come to give birth to a new generation of seal pups. This stretch of coastline becomes a major draw for nature and wildlife enthusiasts, with rangers on duty to provide information and point out imminent, recent and live births in very close proximity.  This is nature ‘in the raw’!  It may not appeal to everyone, but it’s a unique opportunity to capture that 'Attenborough experience’ as we celebrate the great man’s centenary. Entrance is free, but there will be donation buckets.  We will spend 1-2 hours there, depending on the weather (bear in mind this is November on the Lincolnshire coast, and you will need to wrap up warm).  Afterwards we will go to Brigg Garden Centre, where we can warm up, have lunch and do a bit of pre-Christmas shopping.
