Donna Nook is a bombing range on the coast of Lincolnshire, United Kingdom, north of the village of North Somercotes. The area is salt marsh, and is used by the numerous Royal Air Force bases in Lincolnshire for bombing practice. The resident wildlife fare surprisingly well, and seem to have become accustomed to aircraft bombing them on a regular basis.

One particular group is the Grey Seal population, which is visited by around 30,000 people a year, and the seals return to breed during October to December every year.
