Following on from the recent thread on the Predator Action Group and Dave Steuart's articles recently, I was wondering if any of you saw Halcyon River Diaries last night?
I didn't know of the series and this, the second episode, was the first that I had seen.
It showed night vision footage of an otter hunting ducks and later showed the signs of them taking other water fowl from a garden pond.
I suspect more otters will appear in later episodes as they have built a holt to attract them. I further suspect that just how voracious these predators are will become apparent to the viewing public and I am confident that the footage will show them warts and all. Might be an important point of reference for the public in the future?
Here's a link to the first two episodes..........

Stunning work and you might remember some of their earlier stuff? He was the first to film Kingfisher females fighting to the death a few years ago and she has done a moving piece about how much more wildlife she saw on walks after her dog died.
Some marvellously innovative filming techniques that remind me of my hero, the late Dieter Plage.
Here's some more of Charlie's work work for you.......

And here's a little on Dieter, you will remember some of his work surely, if not his name.......RIP Maestro.
