An otter!
While drinking our morning coffee and watching our back pasture through the windows, we saw a sleek, small animal slithering across the field. It was so alien to what we expected to see that it took a moment to register--an otter!
We only have small ponds on our place, and no moving water. The nearest creek is about a mile to the south of us, but this fellow came from the north. He sniffed around the pond and bounded off to the wooded south and hopefully the creek.
I know this is not a very good photo--but it is the best I could manage in my excitement--somehow the camera refused to focus.
