These river otter pups born at the Miller Park Zoo seem to be interested in what I was doing, or perhaps the one thought I was bringing them lunch!

The light caught their faces just right.  Nice tones and detail on their whiskers.

Excelent techs, John. The sharpness is just right.

I have found young river otters to be intensely curious in the wild, too.
