About 3 pm, things were getting slow... light was a bit harsh, so we were talking about moving over to the Osprey nest (earlier post)… and wow, look who popped up! 4 river otters! They all actually swam right over to us, within 30 feet! Great fun, exciting, as these coming images are my first ever of this species. f13 was a bit much, wishing I was at f6.3 for these shots, looking back is always easy!

We head back south in early March.

More soon!
