The snowfall at the weekend made it ideal to have a look around to see what animals had been active overnight, and I wasn't dissappointed with the amount and variety of signs that I found. One interesting sign was this furrow through the snow, leading from a beck, and I was pretty certain even from a distance, that it could only have been made by an Otter (their very short legs mean they have to 'plough' their way through even a few inches of snow). Closer inspection revealed a few tracks in the centre of the furrow, proving that it was indeed an Otter that had been here.

I returned later that day and set up one of our cameras, overlooking the area, and I intend to collect it tonight, so check here tomorrow to see any pictures.
