Hello whalewatchers,

Today we went ashore at a wonderful beach at a peninsula location. The birding was excellent and we generated a good list for the day.

During our travels, we spotted several marine mammals including CA sea lions, long-beaked common dolphins, a blue whale and a large group (500-700 individuals) of Guadalupe fur seals at Las Animas. We took a skiff ride close to the island to observe these fascinating animals and their behaviors.
