Wild otters with Fuji 55-200mm

iJeff · Feb 2, 2015

There are two wild otters residing at the park below my house. Have not used the Fuji 55-200mm for awhile and it was a good opportunity to take some shots of this loving otter couple:

Cute and cuddly! Lovely images, and lovely colors!

Nice pictures.

Cute and cuddly, don't think the fish would agree..

It sucks to be lower on the food chain!

I was sort of expecting this (safe, from BBC). But it looks fun nonetheless.

Great and lovely shots !!

If you can find it, there's a lovely book about otters titled "Tarka, the Otter" that we loved enough to name a boat 'Tarka'. It's surely out of print, but worth haunting used book sales to find.

All of those photos are wonderful! I've never seen an otter in person (not even in a zoo, much less in the wild) so these beautiful, expressive shots were a real treat. Thanks so much for sharing them!

They're otterly adorable! You are very lucky to have this beautiful pair living in your neighborhood, posing for your photographs. Nice shots.

Thanks for the recommendation. I looked it up on Amazon and it sure sounds like a moving book based on the reviews.

Cheers,

I never realized they had "hands" like that either. Kind of creepy and vicious looking when they're eating, aren't they? Luckily we have your other photo evidence to show that they're really quite adorable.

Glad that my "Otters at Bishan Park" photos are featured in Exposure

Great pictures thanks for sharing, just as a matter of interest are the pictures cropped a lot, they are nice and sharp. Raw or jpeg and if Raw which software did you use. Thanks Tony

Thanks, Tony.

I shot in JPEG with Velvia film simulation. I only adjusted the levels and did some cropping for some photos using iPhoto. I am pretty impressed with the Fuji 55-200mm.
