Curving Through the Shallows
A North American river otter twists gracefully through the clear, rocky shallows at the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi, Texas. Seen from above, the otter’s curved body and trailing tail reveal the flexibility and streamlined form that make it such an agile swimmer. Sunlight filtering through the water creates shimmering patterns across the rocks and rich brown fur, adding texture and movement to this lively wildlife portrait.
