Enhydra lutris
Lone sea otter relaxing and grooming while floating in the harbor. This is one of two otters I usually see here; never at the same time. They look totally relaxed but actually they can float on their back like this and move pretty fast with just their tail propelling them.
Boat harbor next to town.

That last shot is funny.
Glad I could help you remember! They are so relaxing to watch and always bring a smile to my face
Reminded me of myself when I first learnt swimming..it is very relaxing to float like this. I feel such solidarity with the otter :) Thank you, Machi for reminding me about a very distant but happy memory!
