Somehow harbour seals make lying on barnacle-encrusted rock look comfortable! Must be all that extra padding!

Vandaag op de fiets door Marrakech met een local gids. Geen paleizen, wel hammam-ovens, buurtbakkers en échte verhalen. Een bijzondere tour die locals opleidt tot gids of fietsenmaker. #MeetTheLocals #Marrakech #FietsenInMarokko

A curious harbour seal checks us out as we drift by. Fun fact: at rest, seals keep their nostrils closed and must intentionally open them to breathe!

Harbour seals come in many colours, from silver and brown to dark grey like this one. But there’s one thing almost all of them have in common—spots!

The cooler weather is no problem for these well-insulated harbour seals. They’re wrapped in a blubber layer up to 2.7 cm thick, or just over one inch!

We’ve had some very low tides lately, which is just fine with the local harbour seal population. They get to have sleepy time on a bed of eelgrass instead of a mattress of hard rock and sharp barnacle and mussel shells!

Move over #GrumpyCat. You have competition from this California sea lion which we found resting mid-strait in a clump of floating kelp. We took a good look to make sure it wasn’t entangled and then left it to its slumbers!

The coat of Steller sea lions is a reddish brown, and the late afternoon sun accentuates it! Aren’t you glad you’re not the sea lion underneath the middle of this blubbery heap? You can see the tip of its nose poking out!
