Upstanding Otter
I had a great encounter with one of my local Otters a couple days ago - it frequently stood up on it's back legs and kept on coming very close to me - curious to the clicking of my camera perhaps. It came so close that I did wonder if it may walk over me as I lay on the rocks. Another OtterA very close encounter with another Otter this evening! Had to shoot at ISO1600 to get something near a decent shutter speed - still too slow for when the Otter was moving though. This one has got what looks like a bite to the nose..
FoggyFinally have some days off! Thick fog and very dull today, so have been editing photos all day and have uploaded a few new ones to the site, including a few from Mallorca. Had a quick look for Otters after tea and found one in th ebay below the house - still too dull for any decent photos :-( maybe tomorrow will be a bit better!
Here's one from a very sunny Palma... Another fine dayWe are having a rather good summer this year - another bright and sunny day today - a little windy though. At least the wind is in a good direction for otters below the house!
Uploaded more images today of some recent encounters...
Shark!!I had a report of a Basking Shark off the east end of Sumburgh airport this afternoon... I headed down immediately, but unfortunately I couldn't see it anywhere. How can I miss a 25 foot long Shark?!
