Otters in there own Whirlpool.

[Judder Man]

Im not sure but I think these were young otters in a natural playful environment. Spotted some reeds moving in the distance near a pond - stream outfall, then two heads popped up out of the water. I was looking for kingfishers at the time so luckily I had my 100-400 lens ready. Taken at F8 at 1/400 sec 800 ISO.

Lovely little animals and so playful, great to have had the opportunity to see them in the wild and get a shot of them, we'll done.

Really nice shot, I like how the water looks, and what a good expression you have caught.
