Otter Surveys

The Friends of Luxulyan Valley's Otter Spotters Group continues to gain more information about the Otter movements in the Valley. We know they are there from the many signs that have been reported, but to get a more accurate picture we have organised quarterly ‘Otter Spotter’ weekends.

The Valley’s river and leat system has been divided up into small sections, each of which is surveyed over one weekend by our ‘Spotters’, at a time that suits them, and should take no longer than a couple of hours. The Group then meets up, usually the following week, in Luxulyan Village Hall at 7.30pm, to discuss and view their findings

The proposed dates are:

Surveys:

11th – 14th April 2008
11th – 14th July 2008
10th – 13th October 2008
16th – 19th January 2009
3rd – 6th April 2009

Meetings:

21st April 2008
21st July 2008
