Nice shot, Yves. I love the texture of the wet fur.

Terrific shot Yves. I like how you captured him out of water amongst the grasses.

Thank you very much Heather. That flat section of the river was flooded and I found it so beautyful that I decided to take some nature scenes shots. While doing the shots I found the nice guy. I am sometime very surprise about the quality of details that camera and lens can achieve.

Really nice capture, Yves. They're fun to watch as they glide across the water of our dugout but I've never had a chance to photograph them out of the water like this.
