Field Notes

Habitat:

In residential subdivision's front lake

Notes:

Very curious. When I first sat at the edge of the lake, the otter swam under water to me and popped its head through surface of the water. It took a long look at me, as if to say... "Got Fish?"

Reference Links:

It also could say: "Give me fish and only then can you take my picture." Great pic though!
