Can we find OTTERS on the Isle of Mull? Wonderful Scotland wildlife - Inner Hebrides Scotland Ep 7

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

How THRILLING to see the first one dragging that eel ashore! And then things got amazingly exciting when you spotted the rest of the family!

[@grapesodatravels]

Yup, Mr Eel put up a fight too!

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

@@grapesodatravels he did!

[@MikeandTriciaOotnAboot]

How lucky you were to have 4 playing around in front of you, and some great footage to cherish 💕

7:04 No no no!! It's jam THEN cream!!! 🙈

[@grapesodatravels]

Ewwwww but then the cream sticks to the roof of your mouth! Wrong! 😉 Thanks for watching guys! N&Nx

[@nicolafloyd8606]

But it's the Cornish way!!!!!

[@LifeistooshortCK]

Absolutely stunning scenery and then you topped it off with the otters 😍 So glad you managed to spot them. We were mesmerised ❤

[@grapesodatravels]

@LifeistooshortCK bless you! Not sure how I remembered to breathe whilst pointing the camera at the otters! Talk about "bucket list"! You would love Mull. N&Nx

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

I was thinking, wouldn't it be nice to go otter watching warm and dry inside a motorhome.😊 Poppy was VERY interested in the otters you spotted!

[@grapesodatravels]

@BobEarnshawMoHo there is that! I would have had fewer midge bites! Definitely DON'T take your van to Carsaig! My car was quite large enough, I still have nightmares about that road! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@GENerationXplorers]

Hi guys! What a great start to the day with the deer visitor’Hello Deer’ 🤣 Oo an Otter hunt how exciting! Good gate keeping there Neil 👍 Moy castle was cool to see even if only inhabited by sheep and geese! We love it when sheep and lambs communicate! Gosh that’s quite a shower! Go on risk it for a biscuit! Great otter spot! Enjoyed this guys have a great weekend Jill & Nick 👍

[@grapesodatravels]

Thanks for watching, guys! Mull is so fabulous for wildlife. We felt very lucky to see such gorgeous animals just continuing about their day! Happy days! N&Nx

[@MattandBecExplores-lt9vf]

This is amazing! Loved the waterfall and phone box. Beautiful footage. Big thumbs up 👍❤️😊

[@grapesodatravels]

Thanks for watching guys! Mull is pretty special, huh? N&Nx

[@nicolafloyd8606]

Ooh I love a castle, shame you couldn't have a look around. I'm also quite impressed you managed to find Rodda's clotted cream ... on Mull! And what absolutely gorgeous scenery. ♥️

[@grapesodatravels]

Mull is GORGEOUS! After all that rain, it was a very necessary scone! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@getawaygeese]

Beautiful location and sooooo peaceful Great work on wildlife shots I normally get just a wave or an out of focus shot Loved the phone box in the middle of nowhere Absolute great shots at the end

[@grapesodatravels]

@@getawaygeese we have plenty of blurry photos too! It was so fabulous to see the otters. What a treat! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@cruisefraterpoultons]

Such a tranquil and beautiful place, the sea was so calm- unreal. You got some amazing shots of the otter family- I bet you were so thrilled ❤

[@grapesodatravels]

@@cruisefraterpoultons possibly the best day of our Scottish adventure! Mull is so fabulous. Thanks for watching N&Nx

Wow! 😮 well done photographing the otters, 🦦 more patience than us 😂

More midge bites too....! We were thrilled to see otters. Mull is blimmin' awesome! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@morgsjoboo2247]

Morning guys What a wonderful way to start your day 🦌 Mull is stunning We love visiting churches when we're away too. It was a stunning little church. Tea and scones sounds perfect Jam then cream for us 😂 How wonderful that you saw an otter The one with the eel was great to watch. You got some amazing footage of them. I always get emotional when we're out and see wildlife (Jo) Hope you had a fabulous weekend ❤

[@grapesodatravels]

@morgsjoboo2247 thanks for watching, yes we did feel incredibly lucky to see them. Hurray for Mull! N&Nx

[@2twinsters]

What a lovely place this looks. One of those places where the rain doesn't spoil it. It looks so peaceful! Beautiful little church surprisingly our boys love visiting old churches from cathedrals to tiny chapels. Hopefully that will last into their teenage years. Love the otter attempt two. Not surprised your declined the goat track but the arches look amazing. That road looks terrifying! We have some of those here in Wow the otter was certainly worth the perseverance! And then another otter and then four! Great video! 😍😎👬

[@grapesodatravels]

@2twinsters Thanks guys! Yup you certainly have to just be patient and wait if you want to spot an otter. Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Nice MAGENTA rain jacket!

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Oh and magenta shirt 👚 too!!

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Or is the shirt pink and red?

[@grapesodatravels]

Yup, my wardrobe is all sorts of shades of pink!

[@openmindedwonderer]

so glad you got to see them. I love Mull, and i remember the road with the telephone box well, thankfully i wasn't driving 🙂

[@grapesodatravels]

That road still gives me nightmares! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Love the drone shots!

[@grapesodatravels]

Glad you like them!

[@PinnedonPlaces]

Gorgeous video on the Isle of Mull. Your 'Hello Deer' was just *chefs kiss* perfect hehe. Loved the gate faff too.. agreed, simple pleasures are awesome! Wouldn't be a UK video without the rain though right? Moy Castle looks super interesting, wonder which of the sheep is the king? Bet it has a rich history and an interesting one too. Loved the little church, very pretty and really well kept, those stained glass windows were lovely to see. The drone shots were epic, liked seeing the beautiful terrain and the coast, so so pretty. It was incredible to see the otters going about, mind you that eel had a bad day! beautiful otters though, you've managed to capture them wonderfully!! A fantastic video, thank you for sharing!

[@grapesodatravels]

@@PinnedonPlaces we would have been gutted if we hadn't seen otters during our stay. What a thrill! Thanks for watching N&Nx

[@PostcardAndAPint]

What a gorgeous place. The weather was a bit pants on your first attempt! We did love the little church though. We're glad you got to see a few otters in the end. That bay on attempt 3 - the sea, has got to be one of the most beautiful places on earth! The drone shots really showed it off well. Then that last attempt and the eel catching otter was just magical! Wow quite a sighting that last one. Cool. 🍻

[@grapesodatravels]

@PostcardAndAPint I may have cried somewhat at the end. Such a wonderful day! Worth the midge bites! Thanks as always! N&Nx

[@ChappysTikiBar]

Great Upload ✅

[@grapesodatravels]

Thanks for watching! Otters rock!

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

Morning guys this place is amazing in any weather and the deer was so cute that welcomed you 😃 There definitely seems to be a lot of wonderful wildlife here. That tiny church was so beautiful, a bit smaller than ours :) Loved the tea and scones and so good that you got to finally see them, soo adorable. That place is stunning :) ~ Anna

[@grapesodatravels]

Thanks for watching. Yes Mull is rather brilliant isn't it! Hurray for otters! N&Nx

[@FXWalesAnnaAlf]

@@grapesodatravels And not only one of them 😃

[@NBNatureTrailvan]

Just the best thing ever!! Love Otters - we watch them locally sometimes. And we were on Mull in May and did manage to spot a mother and cub. But we didn’t get such amazing views. They must have been pretty close. Great spot guys and brilliantly captured 👍👍👍

[@grapesodatravels]

Fortunately my camera has a pretty decent zoom so they weren't as close as the footage looks. We feel so lucky to have seen them so completely chilled on their habitat. Thanks for watching! N&Nx

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

THIS is the video I have been waiting for my whole life!!! What time of year was this, please remind me. I want to know if you had any issue with midges.

[@grapesodatravels]

@MagentaOtterTravels thought you'd enjoy this one! I may have cried after seeing them! I was bitten by the end of the day we saw the otters. The perils of being by water on a still day. Smidge helps though. This was late July. When you make it back to Scotland, let us know and we'll give you handy hints of the type of shoreline that's otter friendly. N&Nx

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Every time you said "utterly " beautiful or wonderful, I wondered if you were saying "otterly" 😂

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

That scone looks too hard if you have to cut it that vigorously 😂

[@grapesodatravels]

Very tasty though 😋

[@anthonygardham4573]

Hi guys, could please ask you which camera you use to capture your video footage on. Thanks in advance. Tony

[@grapesodatravels]

@anthonygardham4573 the majority of our footage is on a GoPro 7. However, the otter footage was captured on an elderly Lumix DMC-FZ200 at the limits of it's zoom capabilities! Which explains the shaky quality! Thanks for watching and hope your enjoyed our furry friends! N&Nx

[@anthonygardham4573]

@@grapesodatravels thanks for your reply. We have been binge watching your videos. We are just planning to visit Mull for 3 weeks starting next May. Thank you so very much for all your videos, they have been invaluable to our plans.

[@anthonygardham4573]

@@grapesodatravels I’m presently looking at the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Adventure Combo for my video footage. I like that it is watertight down to 20 mtrs, although I am not intending to use it at anything like that.

[@anthonygardham4573]

Hi guys, further to my previous comments, could you help us sort out how long we need to stay on Mull? We are (at the moment) thinking of staying on Mull for 2 weeks. In your opinion, would this be enough time , or would 3 weeks be a better choice? Your thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tony & Rose.

[@grapesodatravels]

@anthonygardham4573 A fair question. We stayed for a fortnight but didn't see everything! We stayed in Salen which is great location but a long way to the Ross of Mull. Perhaps find accommodation for a week in Salen or nearby and then another week further south? 🤔

[@anthonygardham4573]

@@grapesodatravels so 3 weeks, would possibly be the better choice? At the moment we’re looking a5 Shielings caravan park near Craignure, Isle of Mull PA65 6AY. We were thinking this might be a “good” base to travel from?

[@grapesodatravels]

@@anthonygardham4573 handy for a cuppa as soon as you get off the ferry. Yes, maybe splash out on 3 weeks as the North and North West will become a longer journey. How exciting! N&Nx
