Blackbirds

Otter

Otter (© Natural England/Allan Drewitt) You are as likely to see an Otter in winter as in summer - which is not very likely! The Otter is not only nocturnal, but also shy and easy to disturb. Keep an eye out instead for the sweet-smelling spraint by the water's edge, often full of fish scales and bones.
