Seaweed Feast - European Otter Spices Up Lunchtime with Father Lasher!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by FLPA/Michael Durham, we witness a truly wild culinary adventure in the coastal strait of Islay Sound, Scotland. Our star of the show is none other than an adult European Otter (Lutra lutra), showcasing its impressive fishing skills and insatiable appetite. With the picturesque Inner Hebrides as its backdrop, this otter takes center stage as it indulges in a delectable meal consisting of Father Lasher (Myoxocephalus scorpius) – a short-spined sculpin also known as "sea scorpion". The otter's keen hunting instincts are on full display as it navigates through seaweed-covered rocks to secure its prey. As autumn sets in and the Atlantic breeze sweeps across the coast, our furry protagonist effortlessly devours its catch. This mustelid carnivore proves that when it comes to satisfying their hunger, they fearlessly dive into Scottish waters without hesitation. The vibrant marine life surrounding Islay Island provides an abundant food source for these playful creatures. With each bite taken amidst swirling sea weed and crashing waves, this otter reminds us of nature's delicate balance between predator and prey. So next time you find yourself strolling along a British shore or exploring Europe's enchanting coastline, keep your eyes peeled for these charismatic otters who know how to make lunchtime an unforgettable feast!
