Almost every year I try to photograph the Otters in Scotland. I have seen the occasional one elsewhere but haven't yet managed to beat the photos I get on Mull. The lighting wasn't great as it was early morning but here are some photos from my trip in July this year.

On and off for many years.
I worked in an office that backed onto The Gala Water, we had a table and chairs "out back" on the river bank beyond the fire escape. We often used to see them in the river if we went out for a break. When eating salmon they are very noisy :) The kits are fun and watching Mum and kits was a real time waster - especially when she had a naughty one who would hide from her.

They appeared to have no fear of us at all and would get much closer than I expected when first told about them.

Fabulous photos AnnB I never did manage to get photos of our family of otters.

I had a poorly otter cub in my wood shed a few years ago. RSPCA cared for her for about 10 weeks and then released her back on my little river. The release was so lovely to see. Iโ€™ve seen the occasional adult on the same river too.
