California Sea Lions
Why do seals swim in salt water?
Because pepper water makes them sneeze!
Interesting Fact: These pinnipeds live along the rocky Pacific Ocean coastlines of western North America. Huge colonies can be seen gathered on seaside rocks, and even on man-made structures, for breeding and for birthing. Males gather harems of females to their sides in competition to sire young pups, which are born on land. ( http://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/c/california-sea-lion/ )

Living on the Canadian coast, these beautiful creatures are sure to be seen in city harbours, piers, remote islands and shorelines and more. During the herring runs they come out in droves. Your photography brings back treasured memories of coastal travel and the marvel of nature. Wonderful.
