On a visit to Bath today, 26th July, we were looking along the Avon at the railway bridge opposite Royal Mail , for the peregrines , and looking down into the shallows at numerous fish swimming amongst the discarded shopping trolleys .

We then saw an otter eating a fish on a ledge about 3 metres below us . Really excited as the first wild otter we had ever seen. Sadly no phone to record it.

When it had finished it sank back into the water and we watched the bubbles as it moved towards the middle but it never re appeared .
