A 04:15 jaunt to Seaford provided me with these shots of our visiting Grey Seal (i would ave missed out on this opportunity had i not been keeping an eye on both twitter and facebook)
Love how people respect these endangered mammals. Whenever they decide to land on a beach, somebody will put up a "border" for people to keep away and nobody seem to cross that line.

Allied Whale rescues stranded Marine mammals. This is a harp seal that they went to check on in the winter of 2005.. it was fine. For the last few winters there has been an unusual influx of "ice seals" (Harp and hooded seals). No one is quite sure why. I hope this one is to mature now to be one of what they call the "beaters".
Please sign the petition if you haven't so far. One thing that is important to know is that some of the seals that are now in Canada may have spent the winter down here in Maine... the ocean does not know national boundaries.
You cannot help but be impressed by the moaning and groaning of the seals, adults and pups as you walk along the pupping grounds.
This cow just caught my eye as she struck a pose to dissuade others from coming closer.
Fine set of 'choppers;
Still on holiday on the Isle of Skye, and was lucky to get out on a boat today to see the seals on the small islands between Skye and the mainland. Great to see they were all common seals, which despite its name is the rarer of our seals.
Female elephant seals bark to warn tourists to keep clear of their pups on Prion Island off South Georgia Island. The larger male asleep behind them is unconcerned.
Taken in 2004.
