Otterly Magical - A Frozen Dance at Dawn in the Scottish Highlands!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by Mark Hamblin, we witness a whimsical scene straight out of a fairy tale. The frozen Loch Lurgainn serves as the stage for an otter ballet, with delicate footprints etched upon its icy surface. As dawn breaks over Coigach, Wester Ross, Scotland, these European river otters leave behind their mark on nature's pristine canvas. Against the backdrop of Sgorr Tuath and Sgorr Deas (Beinn an Eoin), majestic mountains cloaked in snow, the otters' tracks tell a story of adventure and survival. These playful carnivores have braved the cold winter to explore their frozen domain under a moonlit sky. The atmosphere is ethereal; shades of blue paint the landscape as twilight transitions into daybreak. It's as if time stands still while these elusive creatures grace us with their presence. As we gaze upon this image from 2010, our hearts are filled with awe and wonderment at nature's beauty. We can almost hear whispers carried by the wind - tales of resilience and harmony between man and wildlife. So let us cherish this moment frozen in time – a testament to the fragile yet resilient ecosystem that thrives amidst Scotland's highlands. May it serve as a reminder that even during harsh winters, magic can be found when we take a closer look at our natural world.
