California Central Coast - January, 2010
miles driven: ~440
photos taken: ~590
You might remember that I visited this area back in November and saw all the crazy elephant seals on the beaches. Well, that was nothing compared to this adventure! This is the time of year that they all come back to the same area so the adult females can have their babies and the adult males can fight for their harem. It's a pretty noisy bunch of blubbery animals. I posted this video so you can see and hear what it's all about.
