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:

26th – 29th March 2010
9th – 12th July 2010
8th – 11th October 2010
7th – 10th January 2011
8th– 11th April 2011

Meetings:

12th April 2010
19th July 2010
18th October 2010
24th January 2011
18th April 2011
