We spent the weekend on Prince William Sound. My favorite image captured this week. And, Harry, otters are NOT rodents. They're weasels :D

Otters!:clap

The way they socialize with one another has to bring a smile to any one's face...even a rodent hating curmudgeon like Harry!

Thanks for sharing this, Dan.:thumb

What a great behavioral image. Love it and the angle is even low.

Looks like they're just waiting for someone to toss them their supper. :D

Cool shot!

Thanks for the comments, folks. When these critters hang out, they separate themselves into boys clubs and ladies clubs. This was a bunch of guys. I also captured the gals all rafted up with their kids (adolescents at this point) but this was the best image of the lot.
