The next day after seeing a moose we rented a canoe again hoping to get some better shots of this huge mammal. Moose didn't show up but on our way back we spotted a family of otters. 2 adults and 2 small ones. We started following them but had hard time keeping up with their pace and frequent direction changes. I think they were using different defense techniques treating us as potential danger. At first they were all swimming together, a moment later they split up sending one adult one way and the other one along with the kids in the opposite direction. Amazing. They continued to communicate throughout the entire episode. Eventually we stopped following them as we didn't want to scare them off too much. It was a great experience to interact with these elusive animals.
