    That morning looking for the otter looked absolutely amazing with the calm water and bit of fog out there. The birdsong was beautiful, too. Loved hearing your whispered excitement - so awesome. It is neat how seals bob along. Great footage of all the different birds and deer. It's neat how you can see people so far away stopping to look. Very glad you got some footage of the otters as well!

    Beautiful area and drive. Narrow roads! Got to be careful riving through there. Super nice campground on the river. Pretty neat to see the seals. That is a nice zoom lens on your camera. Nice shots of the birds and other wildlife with it too. Nice hike along the creek and through the area. Looked like a great place to visit. Have a nice day.

    Such abundant wildlife! Seals, herons, deer and otters, you must have been in your element on Mull Dave! 🤩🙌. We adore Seal watching in Scotland, could watch them for hours, love their little inquisitive faces having a good look around 🦭❤. The still morning with the fog was so atmospheric. We are glad you got to see sea eagles while on the island, 16 of them must have been quite a site while buying your morning paper for the people in the shop that day! 😀🦅. Otters, you spend hours waiting, then two come along at once😂🦦. That really was an amazing capture, must have been a highlight of an amazing trip👌. Carry on enjoying guys, safe onward travels, we look forward to seeing where you end up next!

      It was so big it was too close for my long lens but we managed to get it flying away being chased by two tiny crows!

      There are a lot of boat trips you can do too. Whale watching - eagle watching etc. and people take personal guided tours guaranteed to see Otters or Eagles. We were tempted to go on one but to be honest you just have to sit for an hour and the wildlife is there!!
