The seals at Ecomare each have their own tricks to getting food at feeding time, one raises a flipper, another spins, and another splashes repeatedly. Of course, the seagulls also have their tricks.

Weekend trip to see the grey seals, and a few common seals, at Horsey Beach in Norfolk. Fantastic to see, but always a reminder of how stupid people are, whether it be because they/we leave plastic on the beach or in the sea, gettting way too close to seals when they visit this beach, or what really baffles me, bringing their dogs to see the seals! People.

A whole herd(?) of elephant seals on the beach near Piedras Blancas. They make the oddest sounds...like a gurgling drain.
