9th January - Bicheno - elephant seal

Friday 9th January 2015


We are now in beautiful Bicehno.

It is not gloriously sunny, but it is gloriously lovely.

And there is a young elephant seal on the rocks near the jetty!



She is moulting and lies there peacefully, while crowds gather to marvel and take photos.



Apparently she will stay here, high and dry, for 4-6 weeks, and then she will slip back into the sea to a make her seal-ish way in the world.



Hamish took about twenty photos on my camera and I am sure today he will take twenty more.



Why not??
