Something’s out there…
What is everybody looking at? Believe it or not, they’re looking at the water waiting for a seal to come out!
A couple minutes before I took this photo, my husband, Andy, and I spotted a seal in the water, practically playing peek-a-boo with us, diving, and splashing about with its fin. We exploded in loud squeals, pointing to the water excitedly.
This caught the attention of the people next to us, and soon, everyone was looking at the seal. It didn’t seem to mind getting all that attention and just kept splashing and diving, all the while, facing the excited humans. It almost felt like it was giving a show on purpose, bless its little heart!
And that wasn’t the first time we saw a seal in these waters, would you believe? Last summer, Andy and I were far in the deep waters alone one morning. All of a sudden, this thing that I can only describe as a leathery off-white ‘plank’ surfaced and moved past us, right in front of us, at a very small distance.

Thank you for sharing, Effrosyni. I love the curiosity and playfulness of seals. Where I currently live in Canada I’m thousands of kilometers from the ocean. I do remember years ago in Alaska, I was in a kayak. There was a small number and their heads would keep popping up around the kayak.
How wonderful and enthralling a memory to have, Carl! Thank you for stopping by to share it 🙂
