Wednesday Wonderment


A male, New Zealand Fur Seal (they also live in Australia) down at our local beach, Freshwater. So lovely to see. Apparently these guys had almost been wiped out by sealers 150 years ago but are slowly coming back. They're heading to familiar territory and they live alone. He's fattening himself up for breeding season in November!

Enjoy your Wednesday. Pxxx
