Part of an Otter spraint from Barnards Tower end steps. This is probably from the foot of a Coot - photograph by Trevor Theobald.
Geoff Liles, Otter Consultant Wales, will be surveying the north bank of Millpond by boat on Wednesday 23rd June (weather permitting).
This will involve looking for all signs of Otter activity and use - and repeats a survey carried out 10 years ago, from which the need for an 'Otter corridor' along the North Bank was recognised in order to protect their habitat.
The report from this survey will be used to highlight the importance of protecting this Otter habitat along the north bank, particularly where development or 'tidying up of gardens' is a threat.
