When it’s low tide on Coast Guard Beach, there are a couple of sandbars that huge groups of seals like to monopolize. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
You can see them lazing around and picking their heads up every once in a while making their distinct wailing noise. Have you seen them at Coast Guard Beach? There sure are lots of them!
Interesting fact: 🙂
“Seals and sea lions have many well-developed whiskers, much like cats. Like cats, they have a very acute sense of touch. Scientists think seals can use their whiskers to detect vibrations from swimming prey. Blind seals in the wild seem to be able to hunt and feed without sight.”
