Otters

This post is a little late as these pictures were taken several weeks ago but I'd like to share them. We had alot of fun watching the otters in our creek. There were 4 of them and they were making quite a splash. Literally! Harv grabbed his camera and followed them up the creek a ways. They were hungry fellows, gobbling up eels by the mouthful. Who knew there were so many eels in our creek? There's always something happening down by the creek.

Otters in your creek? Where do they come from? There is just never a dull moment at your place.

Oh what fun Bev. I love the looks of otters. I've read so many stories with otters in them and it's fun to see them for real...

You did a great job of capturing them with the camera. Very cute little critters! Amazing what swims in the waters nearby. We once had a sea lion swim up the ditch to our farmyard...where it came ashore.

How fun!! Especially that you captured such great pictures of them!

I've never seen them in the wild. We have muskrats and beavers but no otters - apparently they were extirpated. I had no idea. I wish we still had them - I've seen movies of them playing and swimming and they look quite entertaining!
