Whiskers and Paws by the Riverbank

A young otter perches on a smooth river rock, his round face bright and full of curiosity. Wide eyes and long whiskers give him a playful look, as though he is just about to wiggle his nose or splash into the water. He sits with all four paws tucked close, tail curling like a fluffy ribbon behind him.

Tiny details—each toe, the furry patch along his chin, and every arched whisker—invite careful coloring. The riverbank stretches under his feet, leaving plenty of space to imagine bright water, green grasses, or wildflowers nearby. This friendly otter feels ready to say hello to a new friend.

Fun Fact!

The diet of an otter varies depending on where it lives, but often includes fish, crabs, crayfish, frogs, and shellfish.
