Description
Inspired by a TV news article about a boy, here in Florida, that was making a video of an otter swimming in the canal by his house. The video showed the adorable little creature peacefully swimming around in the water. When he came to the boys yard he exited the water and ran after the boy who finally had to stop filming as he he dropped the camera and was brutally attacked by the otter. The news said it was the second such attack by otters in several weeks.
The little buggers obviously did not like having his pictures taken without their consent.
My otters do not live in Florida so they are better behaved. Hahaha. Hope you enjoy my well behaved otters.
Thank you to all who commented on my very crude foray into sci-fi with "Rise of the Phoenix" you were very kind and generous and I really appreciate the encouragement.
It was not what I had hoped but I really loved doing it and I did love the idea and colors. Perhaps I'll rework it someday.

This is a paradise on the earth,,,beautiful nature world,,hugs
A very beautiful scene but such a sad story! I am so glad your otters are better behaved! Do they have better agents thant the ones in Florida? A most exceptional and wonderful work of art! I always love your phenominal masterpieces!
A great, beautiful nature scene and a wonderful artwork!
Beautiful work, light and shade done perfectly.
Your art just keeps getting better, a fabulous idea, well executed. 5*
This is so lovely. Instant favorite. Your use of light and shade just blows me away! This is the kind of creek my wife 'azoohouse' and I paddle through frequently. The otters we have encountered have been on their best behavior. The gators usually are too.
Wow A very inspiring piece Very Nice!
Breathtaking light and colors. If you compare this one to "Winter River", the difference in mood is overwhelming. I would like to do a collage with four of your images, depicting a year with its four seasons. What a marvelous picture that would be! But I realize it would be impossible to choose...
Fantastic composition! Wonderful atmomesphere! :)
Beautifully composed and colored; love the lighting. So serene.. Excellent work, Patty.
Magical image and news story. River otters are seen in many of the canals in our area. Playful and never aggressive. Maybe there was a nest of babies nearby. Love the total image. Dana
