I haven't seen on of them in the yard yet but we get them round here apparently. Raccoons are the other thing we see alot they are pretty cute, as long as they don't cause any problems.

Different animal creatures. This is interesting. Does the human being have the best brain out of all the animal creatures? This is interesting. Some argue that dolphins are smart.

Surely, the human being does not have the best eye. Did you know that the retina of a bald eagle is far superior to that of a human? Yes, the eagle can see more than 10 times better than a human, and it can spot a mouse from many 100s of meters away.

Nice pictures, I love otters.

Nearly missed your post there. Thanks man :thumbsup

I know one GFY poster that is much weirder than the rest of them.

Yes it is interesting. Would be more interested in your posts if they made a bit more sense though :winkwink:

:thumbsup

He made a funny noise at me again just now when I went down there :1orglaugh I don't think he likes me yet :upsidedow

Here in Florida we have freshwater Otters as well. There's are several small ponds near me like the one you pictured and I like to walk my dog by them. Once in a rare while we'll see an Otter. They are very curious and will follow us along from the water. They also don't stay long. I'll see one at one spot for a day or two and then they're gone and won't see another one for months. I've even had one follow on my dog walk, got home to get a camera and go back to nothing :upsidedow

Be very careful though as they can and will bite. Not at all something you would try and hand feed like a squirrel. Just watch from a distance

They seem so happy go lucky. :)

Cool :)

I suspect he'll probably gone tomorrow. He's been there all day in pretty much the same spot enjoying himself. going under for fish and what not.

If there is as many fish in there as I think, then he could be there for quite a while! lol. That would be good. But I doubt it.

Nice to have something like that visit though :)

Otters are the best. He might rip your lungs out though, so be careful about getting too close.

Your biggest clue that he won't be there long is that he ( she ) is alone. :thumbsup

I ain't touching him, he's all good in there by himself :thumbsup

Good point! he/she will probably be looking for a mate with spring starting. Definately won't stay there long unless a female/male turns up aswell.

awesome pics mate :thumbsup

will he find something to eat in that pond? You may want to throw some goldfish in there or something

Thanks mate :thumbsup

Yeah there is definately loads of fish in there. They are natural aswell, river chub (I think not 100% sure) but it was packed with them last year. so he should have plenty of food :thumbsup

If it runs out i'm sure he will go upstream and find more to eat.

Excellant pictures! That otter is very cute!

We live near the New forest & the beach, I have pictures of ponies & dolphins. Its a shame as I ask Natalie for some pictures of her & some horses in the forest... She refuses... lol!

Cute lil buggers,quite the powerful jaws on them too

After keeping eagles, great blue heron, and raccoons at bay and away from the koi in my pond for several years.. it was a river otter that went to town over the course of two nights and created total annihilation. He'd get in under the netting, catch a koi..even very large ones, haul them out onto the side.. take a bite or two and head back for another.

Removed the ones that were left and gave them away. Now I stock my pond with $1.00 young trout and let the critters have what they want. The trout are many times smarter and faster than the koi ever were.
