Otter twist

 

When climbing out of the Lake, many animals disperse water by twisting and shaking. Dogs do it, eagles do it, and otters do it. 

While I had seen otters spin their heads to shake off water, I had not photographed it — that is, until two days ago.

Two River Otters frolicked on a dock. In turn, each twisted to shake off water from immersion.

    Thanks Alistair. I love the halo of tiny pearl like drops around her head.
