A sunny Sunday afternoon seems like a good time to go for a stroll.  It was not supposed to be a wildlife photo trip.  I did have the little M6 with me in my pocket, though, and, since the 55-200 is pretty small, I took that along too.  I was rather glad I did too as, while walking along the river, we saw a family that were peering in to the river.  There were ripples on the surface so we stopped to see what they had seen,  Soon we could see the outline of a pair of otters swimming about.  We watched for a short while and were about to move on when they swam down towards us and climbed out on to the bank.

One of them had caught a fish – a pretty big one in comparison to the otter itself.  It started crunching noisily in to the meal while the other otter seemingly stood guard.  They were on the bank for ages so we watched them for a while and then left them to enjoy their lunch.  A short distance further along we came across a couple watching another otter so I guess this stretch of the Sammammish is pretty popular with otters!
