Otters stop for a photo opportunity on the Gibbon River in Yellowstone NP

One moment in time. We went on a Otter search up the Madison and Gibbon rivers in Yellowstone during June 2019. Eventually, we found this group who were speeding up stream. All of a sudden, they stopped and gathered behind a rock in the middle of the river.
