I've just spent a fun few days in Norfolk watchng these adorable seal pups. This one had to be my favourite though, the face just reminds me of a pug. We were blessed with some great weather, 2 days of cloud and 2 of mostly sunshine with glorious sunrises and sunsets. Here the sun is just starting to sink behind the dunes giving this pup a golden glow!
Just in case you are wondering I was using a really long lens so I didn't disturb the seals and always made sure I didn't cut off their escape route to the sea. This one was taken at 1000mm full frame equivalent.
Looks like a seal pup that's no more than a day or two old. They grow fast, nursing on milk that's 50% fat.
It's spring and there's no shortage of harbor seal pups on the rocks along the Oregon Coast. They will quadruple in size in about a month of nursing before heading out on their own.

Donna Nook, Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust managed site.
Today's numbers as reported by Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust
1607 pups, 1568 cows and 404 bulls (24/11/2023)
The pups are born at around 14 kg. They are born in autumn (October to November) with a dense, soft silky white fur; at first small, they rapidly fatten up on their mothers' extremely fat-rich milk. The milk can consist of up to 60% fat. Within a month or so they shed the pup fur, grow dense waterproof adult fur, and leave for the sea to learn to fish for themselves

This seal pup was very much a poser! Technically I think he was more interested in whether I was a seal or not, and what I was doing lying on the ground!

As the females, the cows, head back to sea they mate with the bulls, however gestation does not start until the spring.

Obi off a fresh grooming. Of course I had to get a few pics before he rolled in the mud or did other schnauzer-like activities.

There were reports of them which I didn't believe since in the last 25 yrs I have not seen one here. I was proven wrong and saw mom with two young pups. Isle Lake Alberta. Happy Canada Day!
For New Years I have re-issued a couple from southwestern Ontario - "Pups in Flight" . . . the CP Galt Subdivision westbound pickup (mainline local) with 4 - pups exits Woodstock, Ontario with the sweet sound that only a pack of SW1200RS's in run 8 can make - June 6, 1976.
As autumn arrives, a preview of winter for you. By the mid 1980s Conrail was purging their roster of 567 powered EMDs, but out of necessity kept many old switchers running out of certain locales. Here on 23 February 1986 at the remains of the Bethlehem engine terminal at the end of Allentown Yard, fresh looking SW8s 8698
(ex-EL, originally DL&W 509) and 8667 (ex-LV 253) await their next call to duty. The pair survived after retirement to work as RBM&N 800 and 802.
The juveniles and pups-wolves under two years old do not have any permanent positions within the pack hierarchy. They obey orders of their parents and older brothers and sisters, but their relationships with each other may change. During their play, they are trying to find out who will eventually be “top wolf” in their age group.
Thanks for your visits and comments. As always, appreciated very much!

Thanks to Mr. Plant I was diverted to Duryea on what was to be an Erie Lackawanna day for this pair of Lehigh Valley SW8 Pups leaving town on the LV headed to Mountain Top and Crestwood on the CNJ.
With a new six-axle restriction on the former Lehigh Valley from Pittston to Mehoopany, PA, Reading & Northern job PIME/MEPI has been seeing some interesting power lately in the former of GP30's and SW8's. With the GP30's in passenger service this day, "pups" 800 and 801, of DLW and LV heritage respectively, powered the Mehoopany turn. Here, MEPI is seen returning east to Pittston as he passes through Falls, PA along the Susquehanna River. Thanks BP for the tip.
I saw my first pack of wild dogs in Selous, now Nyerere, almost twenty years ago. In February this year I made a return visit in the hope of seeing some more dogs. We had a good sighting on my second day and found the dogs post hunt looking for a nice place to rest. We returned to the spot once the day trippers had gone and spent some quality time watching the pups play.
