Otters on Risedale Beck

Monday, January 19th 2015

Thanks to Ken we have managed to capture some fantastic footage of Otters down on Risedale Beck. The video was captured at night using a motion activated camera just before Christmas. They are very welcome visitors to the reserve coming here to feed on the fish that reside in the beck.

Keep watching this space for further footage of Badgers later this week. Thank you Ken for continuing to provide us with the videos.
