Moss Landing Sea Otters

This is one of God's incredible, wonderful, funny, and very entertaining creatures.  You can pretty much be assured that you can watch these loveable creatures anytime by just stopping at the Moss Landing Marina near Monterey.  What a joy.

The Defenders of Wildlife says this about Sea Otters: "The heaviest members of the weasel family, sea otters are the second smallest marine mammals.  Unlike other marine mammals, they do not have a layer of blubber to keep warm.  Instead, sea otters have the densest fur in the animal kingdom, ranging from 250,000 to a million hairs per square inch, which insulates them."   Our God is so awesome, creating everything around us and knowing exactly what they needed to have to survive in their environment.

We have spent literally hours watching them.  You can't help but smile when following them.  There are usually at least one other car that has stopped to try to capture their antics.  We have recently been blessed with a Sony camera with an awesome 50X zoom fixed lens with Zeis optics.  We have never been able to zoom in as close nor as clear as we can now.  Thank you Jesus for this blessing.  Enjoy.  I know they will bring a smile to your face.
