Seals

This weekend we saw one of the seals up reasonably close that lives down at Fisherman’s Wharf that all the tourists flock to see. We wandered further down the waterfront than we have before and came upon a couple of them sitting in the marina – the bigger one was quite bullish and barked at a deck-hand that was squirting him with water – not sure if he was offering him a cooling shower or shoo’ing him off the marina.

Further around we saw the main colony of them – I think the port folks have left all the old pontoons in place to give the seals somewhere of their own to sun bathe rather than having them camp out on people’s boats! Drew quite a crowd that we could see across the inlet.
