What a day Friday 13th turned out! Not long after dawn a stoat came out to run, pounce and catch stuff in the frosty grass - then it ran towards the hide and onto ice! If only the sun had been up on that fur coat ... at the same time 5 otters appeared - talk about spoiled for choice ...

What a shot! Rare enough to see a stoat, rarer still to get the camera on it, but you even get it running over ice! Where was this btw?
