Otters are very common in and around Redmond. B.Y.
On a recent walk along the Sammamish River, I spotted a couple of river otters swimming southbound underneath the 90th Street bridge. They were merrily cavorting along, undulating in and out of the water and acting like they were having the time of their life. I hurriedly pulled out my camera and followed them nearly a half mile, as they swam against the current. I managed to get off a few shots along the way.
Just before they reached the old wooden railroad bridge, one of them climbed up on a partially exposed log near the opposite bank. I was thus able to snap a good photo is it posed regally with its mouth agape.
