Otters can be so curious and captivating, but when they are eating and show their canine teeth it seems their persona changes.
Travis, this one saw me sitting by the side of the Lake (before sunrise) and came over to check me out. I was certainly too big to make an easy meal. Maybe it was curious about having seen a creature with only one eye (the lens of my camera).
Such liquefaction reflection; the (otter) alter ego?
Thank you for the website and beautiful photos; we visit regularly. Perhaps you might be interested in submitting this otter photo to OPOD (optics photo of the day, at http://www.atoptics.co.uk/opod.htm) as it’s clearly very interesting from an optical perspective!
Sylvia, curiously I have had a picture featured recently on this atmospheric optics site. It was at http://atoptics.co.uk/fz917.htm. But, the elongated reflection of the otter is not a product of atmospheric optics, but of a reflection on a curved surface of water.
