Omg they are so joyful. I love the little cubby ears thank you
This put a smile on my face…they are so damn adorable!💜 Thank you CBS Sunday Morning for these nature clips! Please don’t ever stop!
A welcome relief to watch
I have always loved the nature segments. This is a nice respite from the constant noise and strife.

Otter’s in frigid water, like seals !
Cute critters!
Thank goodness for Youtube. This segment was literally only 20 seconds on the TV newscast.
I live on the "Downeast" coast of Maine,a tiny town called Brooklin and I`ve got a female(I assume) otter with her 2 youngsters,very cozily(if that`s even a word),living under my little 10`x 12` shed….she`s been using it for a couple years now and I notice she`ll get to her den at the same time everyday,she`ll bring the kids outside for 10 minutes or so,to play,etc.,and then bring them back in,and somehow makes them stay there while she leaves before dusk…I`ve got no idea if she comes back during the night,but I do notice that the kids stay under the shed when she`s away…..I didn`t even know we had otters around here,til 1 day,I saw movement,thinking it was a squirrel,and,then thought it was a fisher,but no,the ears and definitely the tail gave it away….amazing…….
Nature is so much better than humans
(2:15) watching that otter emerge from the icy water with a fish in its mouth is pretty dramatic.
Beautifully edited: starts with an otter emerging from its hole on the river bank. Ends with the otter returning home.
Agreed ✅
Maine is the most beautiful state in the union
Nature…. she’s the best. Otters getting their nom noms… yum!
Do Otters look cute on backs floating while clamming on table top bellies?
Great movie, I liked it very much. Greetings from the forest! :))

Crazy they can stay warm after being in and out of the water. Good metabolism
Thanks for these peaceful moments.
I love the nature segment. Awesome
Beautiful. Seeing them hunting was a special treat. I ❤️ otters
Sad that CBS cut back the nature segment gradually year by year. Happy for even this bit!
Fun fact : in Ukraine every minute passes in 60 seconds
Great footage – Hooray! to the filmography/photographer.
Otter are an elusive species, distant cousin to the infamous Fischer Cat, who chases the squirrel from tree limb to tree limb exhausting the poor critter out until – well, you know what happens next. Anyhow, there are otters that live in Oakwood Cemetery, Troy NY and the Native Americans have designated Otter as Shaman, among a host of other animal spirits.

Otters are amazing creatures, so hearty and fun to watch. Great video
After the otter’s bathing, preening and snacking; it was fun to see the pair enjoying each other’s company.
Precious part of our world❤️❤️❤️
I live in Portland, Maine. Same neighborhood where you can go see these guys as a matter of fact. These otters moved into the ponds of a local cemetery earlier in the winter. Was big local news at the time.
If we had otters in South Texas, you couldn’t drag me away from them. I’d be there every free minute, watching and laughing.
Extreme Ice Fishing 🐟
😍
So beautiful. How cute they are! Thank you!
Wish they would show the whole clip on Sunday Morning, but have to come to YouTube to see it.
Most peaceful 3 minuets of the day ! Just beautiful !THANKS !
I love this beautiful otter nature seen with water lapping in the background. I could swear the otters posed for the camera a couple of times. 😁😎😷🙋♀️
3:09 I’m Alex Wells please join Jane Pauley when our 🎺 sounds again next Sunday Morning
So adorable 🥰 🦦
This is oddly…relaxing. No big story, no breaking headline. Just nature.
Thank you so much.
Freshwater sushi in ice water and naked! Don’t try this at home.
I love these otters. Thank you Mauricio Handler for making me smile.
Why did #cbssundaymorning NOT SHOW THIS WHOLE video? They showed about 30 seconds! I’d rather see this than some of the crap they showed!!!
Absolutely lovely
A great kindness envelopes them
It’s assumed that these two traveled from Fore River Estuary through the marshes and small creeks to Evergreen cemetery. These two ravaged two small ponds feasting on fish and eventually frogs and eels. They were a delight to watch. We were lucky to have Mauricio come to our rare pair of pure enjoyment. He captured them very well. When I met Mauricio. It was lightly snowing on a thin coating of ice. As you looked on the pond, you could see the spring spots. Where the snow melts. Then the magic happened. Pop Goes The Otter. It was like Whack A Mole Only watching wondering which hole will they pop up. It was a memorable event. They had a great run, but sadly people were tossing Salmon on the ice and allegedly the Game Wardens had to relocate the pair. They were a joy and so far this year no otters.
Beavers and Otters nature’s waterway industrialists, flood controllers and irrigation monitors. Not a botanist/biologist, just an observer that respects.
Beautiful!
So cute but looks so cold
