Hello whalewatchers,
Today we were at Islas San Benito. There were plenty of Guadalupe fur seals to observe and photograph on the way to the island this morning. And the group was greeted with four male elephant seals on the landing beach on Isla San Benito west.
Everyone enjoyed the hike around the island today since we had great weather, sunny skies, a little breeze to keep the temperatures just right for hiking. Several people mentioned the great views of osprey on nests. There are still plenty of elephant seals still, though some females will start to leave the island, leaving their pups behind to become “weaners.”
Looking forward to Laguna San Ignacio tomorrow,
More then,
Capt Art
p.s. The photo is of an elephant seal “weaner,” taken last trip by Chef Charles.
