Morton Lochs is part of Tentsmuir National Nature Reserve located near Tayport, in the north east of Fife, Scotland.

[3] Morton Lochs is not a naturally occurring wetland system; it was made by local land owners, the Christie family, in 1906.

The surrounding woodland of Morton Lochs and Tentsmuir are an important habitat for the red squirrel, which can often be seen right outside the John Berry hide.

Bird feeders are placed around the woodland and outside the John Berry hide and attract a range of tits, finches and great spotted woodpecker.

Wildfowl visitors to the loch include water rail,[5] goldeneye,[5] little grebe,[5] teal,[5] mallard, moorhen, greylag goose, mute swan and many more.
