Lots of new pups at Elephant Seal Lookout, Point Reyes National Seashore. This one is going for a swim. They move in and out of the water all day at the "request" of their moms.

One cute little pup. First time I've tried to do a video with my camera, hope you like it. Using a Canon 7D and a Canon EF 100mm f2.8 USM Macro Lens.
I have just returned from 5 weeks of photographing the endangered Ethiopian Wolves in the highlands of Ethiopia. Here’s a photo of a couple of boisterous two-month old pups playing on a frosty morning!

Mixed feelings when I see pups for sale in the street, good they aren't roaming the streets and will probably find a home. Bad to me is the unethical breeding for profit by breeders do not care or even know anything about breed standards, or about producing puppies that are conformationally and behaviorally sound. They only care about producing puppies that look fit enough to sell to the average consumer who has no knowledge about breed standards and soundness anyway.
My Boxador (Boxer/Labrador mix) Joey, was a happy pup the day I took this shot. I used my X100 for this portrait.
Another of the cute seal pups seen on our visit to Donna Nook and a different colouring again.
The pups I photographed were mainly so close that I used my phone which I could hold over the wire fence and look down at them.
My last seal shot for now. I shall visit them again in the summer and hopefully get to see some new-born pups in November.
Grey seal pups are born with a white coat known as a 'lanugo'.
The mother seals only suckle their pups for 17 to 23 days. Her milk contains up to 50 to 60% fat, ten times more than a Jersey cow’s milk. This helps the pups gain weight rapidly and develop a layer of blubber. Pups go from their birthweight of around 28 lb. (13 kg) to 100 lb. (45 kg) in just three weeks. Once the pup has suckled the mother leaves, never to return.
Pups then stay behind on the beach alone for around another three weeks to moult their white coats and grow a shorter adult waterproof coat. During this time they fast, living off their fat reserves. When they are ready the pups go into the sea and teach themselves to fish.
If the pup is a bull it could live for up to 25 years, whereas cows live for 35 years.
This is a vertical panorama stitched together from four horizontal shots, each of which was, itself, a blend of four, bracketed exposures.
Our new pal Lily is now a confident pup but her first day down the beach was a new experience, a few days later she was was offlead and introducing herself to everyone in a well mannered way. We really need our dogs to socialise and play offlead with other dogs in public areas. It makes for happier dogs and a safer world for ourselves too. The more councils try to ban and inhibit the dogs by forcing them on lead the more the dog bite incidents will rise. In trying to make us safer by discriminatory and draconian laws they are causing the very behaviour they are trying to stop. They should be targetting the bad dog owners behaviour instead of segregating dogs and educating owners and the public rather than demonising dogs.
Check out here for another pic of Lily on her first day at the beach.
This is a photo from a couple of months back on our visit to Donna Nook. There was also some seal pups that had been born while we were there and many that were just days old.
The 5 pups and their mom are so much fun to watch. They move about the pond together and devour frogs, fish and fresh water eels and are like a school of sharks in a feeding frenzy.
I love to just sit and watch the seal pups. It has to be one of my favourite times of year.
All my photos are taken with a 600mm telephoto lens, so I am a good distance away from all the seals.

After much wrangling, the flash batteries went dead, chasing them around a little, 2 assistants, and got one usable photo. Life with schnauzers :)
probably a few weeks old, this is one of the many grey seal pups that have been born on to the beach at Donna Nook nature reserve, East Lincs, UK....November 2018
A pair of former CP Rail SW1200RS pups switch the CAMI plant. After a day of chasing an RS-18u / FP9A combo between Putnam and Woodstock finding this pair switching CAMI was the icing on the cake.

Today we celebrated birthdays. Toaster's third litter of pups turned 13 years old today. From left to right - Salty, Ruby, Frodo and Cholie. We still call them "the pups." All but Cholie are still actively running in our team and nearing their retirement. Such good, sweet and hard working dogs. Each very much an individual with a unique personality. We love them.
donated cupcakes for a worthy cause =) this was from a couple of weeks ago, just made the photo public when I noticed I had 666 public photos, whew! out of the evil zone now =))
The Shuttleworth Collection Sopwith Pup with Le Prieur rockets for bringing down Zeppelins... (It doesn't fly with these fitted, static display only)
Today when my mom and I arrived at the Carpinteria beach house, a baby seal was asleep in a striped beach chair on the porch. After a while it was obvious the pup wasn't moving much, and seemed lethargic, so we called the City of Carpinteria to ask for assistance. We were put in touch with Sylvia who recommended that we call the Santa Barbara Marine Mammal Center. In a short time Will from the center came and picked up the seal, said it was a yearling and very underweight. He told us that they will treat and care for him. He gave me their info so I could follow up on the pup and promised he would get good care.
This is what I've learned about the Santa Barbara Marine Mammal Center. It is a non-profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers and funded by private donations and grants. People from all walks of life give their time to help wildlife. Contributions are tax deductible and may be sent to Santa Barbara Marine Mammal Center, 389 N. Hope Ave., Santa Barbara, CA 913110 or call 805-687-3255 to learn about volunteering to help.
