Smiling Otter by the Pond’s Edge

A cheerful otter sits right on top of a chunky rock, front paws tucked neatly on his belly. His round eyes seem to twinkle as he looks ahead with a gentle, whiskery smile. Long, tidy whiskers curve across his snout and his wide tail loops softly around the side of the stone.

Beside him, tall reeds stretch up with one big cattail balancing perfectly at the top. The scene feels quiet and sunny, with plenty of space around the otter for splashes of color. This otter looks ready for a friendly splash or two in the water nearby.

Fun Fact!

Asian Small-clawed Otters, the smallest otter species, are also very social and live in extended family groups.
