All four otters on the bank. They sat up there for a few moments before diving back into the water as a group. Otter synchronized diving!

The four otters on the bank head back for the water.
	Three otters hunting in the fishin' hole. They spent about five minutes here and I kept snapping photos as I watched them. The hunting must have been good.
