Otter filmed in the Mournes

I was hiking through the Mourne mountains when I happened upon this fella. The wind was blowing a gale toward me so he was unable to hear me or scent my approach. I didn't even know he was there until I was right on top of him. I pulled the mobile out of my pocket and started recording about 30 seconds after spotting him. He was about 4 - 5 feet away and he didn't spook as I was standing stock still. All the same he seems a bit miffed as to where I came from at the start, nearly as miffed as me at finding an Otter halfway up a mountain :-)

It was an absolute privelage to observe this sight
