Otter watch.

I have seen otters in the sea in Scotland many times, especially in Islay and Mull, but I've found it much harder to find them in fresh water.You may remember my failed attempts to photograph an otter earlier this year. I got pictures of an otter holt, photographs of otter prints and photographs of otter spraint, but no otters. Now, four months later, I have finally snapped one hunting close to the River Hull.

Unfortunately there was a reed in the way as I took the photographs!
