Theme Thursday – Gone Fishin’

You get a line and I'll get a pole
Looks like our friends at Theme Thursday have started their Holiday a little early and hung out the Gone Fishin’ sign. They "otter" know better than that!

This is a photo I took from quite a distance on our hotel balcony on our trip to Monterey. This man was out early one morning. If you look very closely you can see that there are a couple of sea otters floating beside him.

Why don’t you grab a pole and join us?

Ha! That's funny. And, yes....reminiscent of the pic I posted with the kayakers. I just love otters. When I visited Monterey years ago, I could have watched them play for hours.

Otters seem to be happy creatures by nature and love to play. Its quite ingenious how they open oysters on their bellies with a rock.

A cold day on the sea, but is always better than a hot day.

Sea otter, huh. I wondered what those lumps were. the river Otters here are very elusive. You see them and then-flash-they are gone. MB

I like the composition on this. And that water is so textured.

Tom said...

I see them... how cool! Was it really that cold in Monterey that he had to wear a coat, gloves, & hat? WoW!
I see on your sidebar that it's 106 in AZ... Dear GOD in Heaven!!! It's finally cooled off here in SeMo

Now that looks like a nice way to spend the day. I lived in Phoenix for 40 years before moving here and I almost bought a house in Estrella Mountain Ranch once.

Terrific shot and well done substituting your own theme when there wasn't one this week.
