Sea Otter ~ This was one of four sea otters in the exhibit at Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, California. They were swimming and diving and very busy playing, not at all interested in posing for their pictures.
Bobcat Portrait ~ This bobcat had gone into the bushes, and I thought he was gone. When I looked into the bushes, there he was, looking back at me! Love those pointy ears and big eyes.
Coues Deer ~ This sweet deer was photographed in southeast Arizona. It is a Coues Deer (pronounced "cows"), a small and delicate type of White-tailed deer. This one was in Ramsey Canyon in the Huachucua Mountains.
