I used to go sit at the zoo, some weeks every single day just to watch them. And visit the otters, of course!
There are two, they are brothers. Really laid back fellows who would probably eat you if given the chance and the hunger. I just once wanted to see them catch a fish in their enclosure. I saw them et their lunch, go for a swim, play a bit in the water. Occasionally eye a seagull who was there to steal their snacks. Over the weeks the fish number would start to dwindle and then there would be just a bunch off tiny fish that either were not enough of a snack to appeal to them so they let them be for far too long. I quit going to the zoo as often when the weather turned too cold. And then I moved away. I miss my bears….and otters.
Today, I see this!!

Granted my enthusiasm would have been met with the sad eyes of children and maybe even the angry eyes of their parents. I bet they would never invite me to another birthday party again. Still, worth it. Poor kids.

@UnderLockDown Oh, I agree. But why did the momma Duck choose the bears when the otters are right there, in the next enclosure over? Or any other water exhibit in the entire place!! so maybe it was her gift to a hungry bear that just wanted to feel wild for a moment.
