ABC Wednesday / "Q"










ABC Wednesday
's theme this week is "Q."

These elephant seals are NOT "quiet!"

We have seen them many times over the years. They can be found at the Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Colony which is located on U.S. Highway 1 approximately 45 miles north of San Luis Obispo near the Piedras Blancas Lighthouse. The seals are viewed on the beaches from a boardwalk bluff above. And...they are NOT "quiet!"

You are so right. They definitely aren't quiet.
The two seals look like they are having a good laugh over the whole situation.

Great photo, I don't think I've ever met a quiet seal.

Great photo. They look like they're singing in harmony, but I don't suppose they sound very harmonic!

Carol said...

I've seen the sea lions on Pier 39 - they weren't quiet, either!
