I am a native in this world And think in it as a native thinks

Family time


These seals were in Ocean Harbor. I like how in the family on the right, dad is watching the kids while mom crashes.

I don't know if the adult in the picture on the left is the mother or just an adult guarding a nursery, but I love how the young seal on the right has already got the “look straight up with your eyes closed” fur seal posture down.

Update: Looking at these pictures drives me a little crazy because of the bad cropping. But I have to remind myself that they were taken from a zodiac, where not only were we rocking and bouncing, but I was also shooting around and over fellow passengers. (If it was calm enough and we were stationary sometimes we were allowed to stand in the zodiacs. But I took a lot of these pictures while we were moving.) So I make the best pictures I can out of what I got.
