Using over 14 years of experience in the art of camera trapping otters, I share the “tips of the trade” and how to deploy and get the best images from both conventional camera traps and SLR camera traps. The talk will then explain what features can be used to identify individual otters and how the results can be collated to gain a fascinating insight into otter behaviour. This is a relatively specialist talk suitable for audiences with a keen interest in the subject.

About Stephen Powles

Formerly a vet, I changed career to pursue a lifelong passion for wildlife, wildlife photography, filming and conservation. My material has made several TV appearances. I have a keen interest in photographing and filming challenging wildlife subjects, many of which are in and close to my home. My special interests are otters, tawny owls, hedgehogs, hornets and conservation generally. The talks that I give are informative but light-hearted and are lavishly illustrated with some remarkable photographic images and film sequences. I am based near Tiverton in Mid Devon.
