One of the feew animals I have yet to see wild in this country. I will rectify that this year I am sure.

Where was this one taken? it looks very nice there but if you are anyhwere me I will bet it is bloody cold.

by the way dont get too close I have been hearing some horror stories from marine wildlife people here about their 'otter inflicted injury histories'.

Nice work dude. Good composition and the light looks spot on.

He's pencilled in.

I should add that this otter cub pic was taken today in a wildlife park/nature reserve place in Cumbria... the ones in the Highlands have strong accents, thicker fur and drink three pints of heavy before jumping in the freezing sea (so look slightly more deshevelled and fart a lot).

edited to add... [smartarse] did I mention the white tailed eagles nesting on an island in the middle of the loch? They are HUGE [/smartarse]

Now I can see it, I like it apart from one little thing. It looks like the pale fur on the muzzle is just burnt out, but maybe that's compressing things for the web?
