The Covid Octopus

August 25, 2024 at 7:29 pm

It is now nearly four years since the Covid restrictions were relaxed and we were again able to visit Islay. After losing our June holiday I was anxious to re-visit Jura to search for Otters. When we arrived at the ferry the ferry-man informed us that as nothing on Jura was open to the public the island was effectively closed! When we told him that we had no intention of meeting people and only wanted to film Otters we are finally allowed to cross the Sound. What followed was our best ever encounter of an Otter coming ashore with an Octopus.
