Otters. Otters are incredibly intelligent but also very shy animals that are usually active at dusk and at night. They are highly agile hunters. Because of their shyness and alertness, they are difficult to spot in the wild. This series was taken from a photo hide owned by Bence Maté in Hungary, where I sat perfectly still for a total of eleven hours waiting for them to appear. When it comes to wildlife spotting, I can be patient for hours.
