~ This cute black kitten was photographed in Harmony, California. For anyone not familiar with Harmony, it is a very small town on the central coast, boasting a population of 18. Just outside of Cambria, it is a great stop for the pottery store, the glassblowing studio and gallery, for winetasting, or the restaurant. There's even a wedding chapel built into a wine cask--something for everyone!
Sea Otter in the Kelp ~ The sea otters in the Morro Bay area come in closer to shore in sheltered areas in the winter. The sun is just coming up, lighting up the fur on this cutie.
Sea Otter in Morro Bay ~ This cute otter was rubbing his "hands" together, maybe to warm them up. I understood the feeling...my hands on my camera were freezing in the pre-dawn chill in January.
