Cute, sly, and sleek, the river otter has been returning in numbers on Long Island, and on Wednesday a naturalist and writer hereabouts, Mike Bottini, will talk about the comeback and related conservation efforts, accompanied by a short documentary on the subject. Among his topics will be the proper way to report otter sightings.
Mr. Bottini's books include "Exploring East End Waters." His talk starts at 6 p.m. in Ashawagh Hall, the latest in the free Meet the Author series courtesy of the hamlet's historical society and library. Those joining the society will receive a copy of "Book Love," edited by Bill Henderson.
