Have seen two otters in our local lake !!!! It had been rumoured there was one, possibly two, but I saw them for myself last night whilst that wonderful sunset was in progress. I feel lucky and honoured.
I read about there declining numbers recently and the attempts to revive them. Hopefully they will become a more common site in the future.
As long as they can regualte the numbers. Otters are very capable of destroying fish stocks for fun nevermind for the table.
