California Sea Lion


When you walk on the pier in Santa Cruz, California, you can count on seeing seals.
I stood there for a long time listening and watching them.
There were groups, some young and some very old.
This guy looked up at me begging for a photo.

more tomorrow...

Tylko on prosił o zdjęcie ? szkoda, bo inne też były z pewnością cudowne. Uwielbiam patrzeć na foki i ich harce. Pozdrawiam. ***He only asked for a photo? pity, because others also were certainly wonderful. I love to see the seals and their frolics. Yours.

hey, you put a new photo of big orange fur ball on the side bar! first thing I noticed. and your profile pic is new too - very very nice. you're very photogenic. I'm loving your photos of the sea lions. the first one - older post - is extraordinary. I'm unable to watch the video. it says to please try again later. I will. your shots are extraordinary. I do agree with the fisherman - water is good for the soul. I like the frothy waves behind the gull. happy weekend to you Janie. (we're getting snow!!!)
