My recent trip to Mull was not blessed with the best of weather but still managed to get out and snap a few corporative Otters. Going back again at the start of June to have another go as they are quite addictive.

I think the otter is beautiful but I find the out of focus grass? at the bottom very distracting.

Nice otter shot, just a shame about the oof grass at the bottom.
I'll be on Mull myself for the first 2 weeks in June so lets hope for some good weather

Nice shot John - right place at the right time is not easy with the otters!

Where did you take the shot? I found near the old fishing boats to be a good spot, toward Aros. They seemed to hunt in the bay on the tides.

Great shot John. I actually like the oof area at the bottom, gives it a more intimate feel.
