Otters

[Matthew Arnold]

On one of the site i manage on Monday i saw some Otters. We had 3 adults and atleast 2 kits that we could see running along the bank. Glad i had my compact with me as got some good shots. They have a holt along the riverbank where i purposefully felled a splitting crack willow along the edge of the river. The willow is still growing and there is loads of shelter and hiding places along the stretch for the young otters to feed.

Fantastic ! built a holt in surrey but the only otters found in the vicinity have been dead at road side. Maybe one day they will flourish again here.
