A GUEST house owner has captured more footage of his local Pickering otters.
Mike Saul, who runs Vivers Mill bed and breakfast with his wife Sue, set up spy cameras to film the otters last year.
Due to the fact that the B&B is based in a centuries-old water mill, the otters can get into the wheelhouse to play around.
This time, Mike said the otter has been filmed "enjoying himself rolling around on our carpet at the foot of our stairs within the wheelhouse."
He has spoken before of the animals' inquisitiveness, and has previously discovered items scattered around the floor that the otters had been playing with.
The otter may be drying and grooming its fur by vigorously rolling on the ground. This helps the fur maintain its insulating qualities.
