EDITORS COMMENTS
Sea Otter Takes a Kelp Nap - A Picture Perfect Moment in Monterey Bay!". In this enchanting print captured by the talented duo Tom and Pat Leeson, we witness an adorable sea otter indulging in some well-deserved rest amidst the vibrant kelp forest of Monterey Bay. This charismatic marine mammal, known as Enhydra lutris to biologists but let's call him "Otto" has found the ultimate spot for relaxation. With its fluffy fur glistening under the warm Californian sun, Otto appears completely at ease as he floats effortlessly on his back. Nestled within a bed of giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera), he seems to have discovered nature's very own waterbed! The lush greenery provides both comfort and camouflage for our furry friend. As one of North America's most beloved creatures, sea otters like Otto are renowned for their playful nature and mischievous antics. However, even these energetic critters need their beauty sleep! With closed eyes and a contented expression on his face, Otto is undoubtedly dreaming about chasing fish or perhaps organizing an underwater party with his fellow otter pals. This image reminds us of the incredible diversity that exists beneath the waves along California's stunning coastline. So next time you're strolling along the beach or exploring Monterey Bay, keep your eyes peeled for these delightful marine mammals – they might just be catching up on their beauty sleep among the swaying kelp forests!
