> Sunday morning I scouted a location where a friend mentioned that he'd
> seen a very cooperative Cooper's Hawk. I didn't find the hawk, but I
> believe what I did find more than makes up for not seeing the hawk: a pair
> of Northern River Otters. Judging from the numerous tracks, slides and
> trails, the abundant scat and many meal remnants on the bank of the river
> I'm 99% sure I found a den site.

> By the time I found the otters it was mid-morning and the lighting was
> tricky to work with so I believe that with patience and an earlier start I
> can do better than this photo, but I'm not complaining :)
