Yorkshire Wolds

The Yorkshire Wolds are teeming with wildlife. Red Kites drift majestically over the villages of Warter and Nunburnholme, while Wansford is the haunt of Otters and Water Voles. Another area to encounter the characterful Water Vole is on the banks of the River Hull at Kings Mill near Driffield, while Top Hill Low and Leven Canal is one of the best places in East Yorkshire to see dragonflies and damselflies.
