Do sea otters know the
exact distance at which my Canon requires a tripod to insure good focus? Those
cautious little critters with their cute, whiskery, grandpa-like faces manage
to keep just far enough away from the
boat to be out of range for a quick handheld shot. When the otters have occasionally
swum close to the boat, they immediately roll over and disappear underwater at
the slightest noise or even a hint of motion on my part. Drat! I’d forgive them
for eating all of the crab in the bay if they would just drop by for a closeup.
Kalinin appears to be a
summer residence for two pair of otters, a mother and youngster duo as well as
an adult pair. Here’s a glimpse of one of our elusive neighbors, my latest otter-at-a-distance
photos.
