Elehant Seals!




The mommy elephant seals are having babies, and the males are gettin' down (if you know what I mean). They are at Piedras Blancas in San Simeon right now and they are so cool! I was there a couple months ago and saw the juvenile males laying out on the beach. The babies are much more exciting! We watched an intense brawl between those two huge males pictured above. The battle went on so long they ended up in the water ans we left. We wish we could have stayed to see who won, but it was getting too dark. Aren't the babies so adorable!
