Otter Sightings

As Kilchoan Bay becomes quieter with the onset of winter, otters are once again coming closer in so they can be seen from the shop.

That otter looks like it is walking on water!

Yes. He'd found a low-lying rock on which he was eating something, possibly a crab.

About Kilchoan

Kilchoan is a remote Scottish crofting village at the westernmost end of the Ardnamurchan peninsula, a two-hour drive to the west of Fort William. Its white houses are strung like pearls around a wide bay, looking out across the Sound of Mull to Tobermory. The year-round population of the village itself is just over a hundred, but this diary writes about all the villages of western Ardnamurchan, including Portuairk, Sanna, Achosnich, Achnaha and Kilmory.
