Default Family of Otters

We were out fishing the other day on the river and had stopped near this bank to fish a while. Kept hearing this splashing around and finally saw an otter come up out of the water and go onto the bank. Right after that one came another then a couple more. Seems there was a mother otter and her babies having some fun and keeping an eye on us. It's always nice to see something like this when you are on the water.

I'll always trek very far,
to see where swimming otters are.




Hi...


Yes, otters aren't seen very often in the wild. Glad you had the chance to enjoy watching them.

They are quite frivolous critters, very family oriented, and can swim faster than a trout.

I love watching them, although they're not seen in their own element very much.

We seen them now and then on the river that we fish. They can be amusing to watch but can be kind of destructive if near a Marina. They like to get on the boats and chew and sometimes 'take care of business' while on them. Some of the owners aren't as thrilled to see them as others.
