A laughing sea otter,Enhydra Lutris, enjoying the company of his friends. This image was captured near Sitka, Alaska. Traveling by small boat through the various bays around Sitka a variety of wildlife can be spotted. Coming upon a raft of sea otters (raft of sea otters is like a gaggle of geese or a flock of birds) was a photographers delight.
There were about 200 otters in this raft, floating, eating, playing and swimming about the bay. The otter on left is in serious contemplation, the one on the right is eating, and the one in the middle is smiling for/or laughing at the photographer. The lighter the facial whiskers on a sea otter is an indication of his/her age. The younger otters are dark like the body fur and as they age it becomes lighter. Looking closely there seems to be a variety of ages in this image. The oil in their fur protects them from the extreme colds of the Alaskan Pacific waters.
