Splendid pictures on the website you mentioned george..........the otters are good too. There's been an otter bydin at Mavis Grind for the past few weeks, but he met his end trying to cross the road last Saturday/Sunday.

Thats the life, sitting on a rock sun bathing, not a care in the world - well maybe a slight worry of where that great big killer whale has gone. Is that one in the water I see.

bod.... you say the seals have quite a life sitting on a rock all day in the sun...... I'd say George has quite a life.......sitting on a rock all day in the sun taking "115" pictures of the otters.........!!!!!!! That said ....great pictures george, so clear you could almost touch them.

Hello CC..I normally go out looking for wildlife in my car..but today I thought I would just saunter down from my house to the sea which is quite close to where I live...then I spotted the Otter..it was quite funny watching it eating the fish, it kept shaking it's head trying to turn the fish round to swallow them head first...I took a lot of picture's of it just in case I did'nt spot another one for a while...I would really like to get a good picture of one ashore..this one did.. but I had my large telephoto len's on. so it would not focus as the Otter was to close to me....but I will get one sometime..soon I hope..

Hi George The photos of the otter are fantastic I love the last one best with the gull dipping in for the scraps. Tell me George do you ever have time to go fishing these days with all this nature watching?

I think he's looking at you george. Those are just brilliant. We don't get any otters just here but they are around the area I've been told. Has he got a friend or is he a solitary otter??
