On one of our walks we spotted black shapes swimming towards Inverness and it was only when these shapes leapt from the water we realised they were a pod of dolphins.

We've never seen dolphins in the wild before and it was an amazing site. They weren't very close but it was an amazing sighting.

As we walked back to the car after a great evening we spotted an otter swimming up stream.

The last time we saw an otter was in another city in another country - Florence. It seems that otters are really happy in towns and long may it be so.
