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:

8th – 11th April 2011
8th – 11th July 2011
7th – 10th October 2011
6th – 9th January 2012
13th– 16th April 2012

Meetings:

18th April 2011
18th July 2011
17th October 2011
16th January 2012
23rd April 2012
