Into the Wild..


I wanted to make a second post this week because I ran into a gradute of the PMMC (haha) while whale watching in Newport this weekend! We were returning from the expedition and our captain stopped at a buoy near "the wedge" so that we could see some of the sleeping sea lions that were on its base platform. When we approached the buoy, a young sea lion jumped off and started swimming around the boat. When he surfaced near the viewing deck, we could see the red "released" tag from the PMMC! It was great to see him doing well in his natural habitat. Because he was so fast, I couldn't get a picture of him, but I got some shots of his new family sleeping the day away on the buoy. They look very healthy and fat (notice the little pup resting on dad)!
