So there I was, on my way home from my last adventure in the Bay Area, making a quick stop in Morro Bay on the California coast, just to get a few more pictures to share… and once again… you gotta love that crazy zoom lens!
Don’t worry, I think I have better pictures of the baby otter, but if I do, I am saving them for the next post, which will almost be the last post of this adventure.
I was out under the crazy big, sea bird poop-covered rock that sits on the spit of land that protects Morro Bay.
I admit it… I took a lot of pictures of the otters… like this one, where they are using the kelp as a raft. Hey, when you have a zoom lens, and there are otters, you are going to take a lot of pictures of the otters… they are freekin’ adorable.
Look, that guy is still floating around wrapped in a kelp blanket.
Hey, I tried to take some pictures of other things…
Like the pelicans that were flying around… To be honest, it is not easy to take pictures of birds in flight with a zoom lens. Not even when the birds are big. But fortunately, my good camera takes and saves pictures at like 72 inches wide… so a lot of the time, I crop the images. Neither one of these pelicans was in the center of the photo, let’s just say.
I took a pictures of some ducks. I ought to know what they are called. I am something of a bird watcher. But I don’t know. My mom would know.
I even took a couple of pictures of some crabs.
But mostly…
… I took pictures of the otters… the mommy cleaning her baby, and Mr. Kelp Blanket cleaning his face…
Pouring My Art Out 
I could totally eat that otter. I can’t believe I just said that. But cute is also usually delicious. Wow. Also not a great thing to say.
you haven’t changed a bit… now go eat a beaver…
I only eat beaver tail.
you moved up some from minion chow
We had a lot of otters on the east coast where I was raised. they are delightful. Have you ever seen them eat in the wild? They love shellfish and will get a palm sized rock, place it on their belly and crack the mussel or crab or whatever against the rock and eat it – so cool.
Excellent pictures Art.
I saw that, but he was too far away for a good picture
Awwwww
yup
What i find crazy is the operator of said zoom lens!
Nonetheless some great images..
