We’re exploring the idea of creating and managing high-quality wildlife photography and observation hides in Buckinghamshire, near Milton Keynes. These hides (if all goes to plan) would provide opportunities to observe a diverse range of wildlife, including:

• kingfishers
• birds of prey (such as red kites, owls, sparrowhawks, and kestrels)
• small mammals (like otters, deer, badgers and foxes),
• and/or a wide variety of songbirds.

Our hides would blend into the natural environment, ensuring close access to wildlife without disturbing them.

Our approach prioritises sustainability by enhancing wildlife habitats while offering a state-of-the-art experience for photographers, birdwatchers, and nature enthusiasts. To determine if this project is viable, we’re seeking feedback from people like you. If there isn’t enough interest, we’ll shelve the idea; if there is, your input will help shape something truly special.

Whether or not you’d personally use these hides, we’d greatly appreciate your time in answering this survey. As a thank-you, we’ll randomly select one respondent to win a £50 WEX Photography Giftcard (ideal for a discounted pair of binoculars or camera accessories). If the project goes ahead, all participants will receive an exclusive discount on future bookings (valid for 1 year). Additionally, for every 10 submissions, we’ll plant a UK tree to thank those who complete the survey, even if they’re not interested in the hides.
