OTTERLY ADORABLE

My increasing interest in wildlife is bringing about some lovely moments recently.

A location almost on our doorstep, not the remote isles of Scotland. So you can gather my excitement when I found out about the otters

We spent several hours, watching their behaviour, speedily motoring through the water, watching as they dived and following the trail of bubbles

I watched numerous times, as one firstly caught a fish, then brought back an eel for the kit, waiting on the bankside

Sadly the young kit, although quite agile in the water, seems to have a very bad eye problem with her/his left eye, which bulges significantly.

I wasn't sure which image to post but this one of the otter creating some wonderful ripples as it glides effortlessly through the water appealed
