A good meal
Another otter image from last spring. The good news (for me at least :smile: ) is that they are back on my patch. I saw two on Saturday morning and one on Sunday so I'm hopeful I will get some more images this year.

Another fine otter image Rob and great to see it eating lunch from the side. Only slight nit is the the reed stem apparently skewering the otter, had to look twice to reassure myself it hadn't! :eek: Appreciate there was nothing you could do about it although its sods law that had it lying atwixt the two stems. looking forward to the next lot of images from you!

Looks like a roach ;) or a dace. Very nice, good to have one without the seaweed for a change!
