As threatened, more otter photos.

Life is all about playtime for the Northern River Otter.  If not hunting or 
grooming they're playing.

Dad showed up briefly but after a parental squabble he left in a huff.

Mom never spoke harshly to the pups, even when they interfered with the hunt.

technical stuff: R8/DMR, 280mm f/4 APO, shoulder stock & monopod.  All 
comments welcome.
