I have taken dozens of pictures of otters around the Lake. Many of the otters were swimming; Others were visiting docks (where they preened and defecated); Others appeared on ice or snow. This is the first picture I have taken of otters on the ground alongside the Lake.
Now, it is not as if I doubted that this amphibious animal wandered the lakeshore, but it is interesting just how long it took before I managed a picture of it doing so.
A family of four otters moves along the shore: a parent leads its three pups.
Another great shot. I hear they do not smell too sweet.
