It seemed a bit inconsistent – in the middle of an area of lava
rocks, there was this small pool of water that was below the level of the
rocks, and in which were some Galapagos fur seals playing in the most beautiful
aquamarine waters I’d ever seen!

They seemed oblivious to us, just floating along in those lovely
cool waters. By this time, the heat and
humidity was getting a bit intense, and I truly felt like jumping into that
water to join them! However, I had no
idea how to climb up from the pool……besides, I would have gotten much too close
to them, and would have totally invaded their space.
Cool Clear Water
I love this image because you can just see how comfortable this
little guy is, and how relaxed in his environment he is.

The little guy had just started playing in the pool, sort of
flipping over and doing dives and twists.
I was able to catch him, mid-flip!
Two Fur Seals Playing
Here’s a scene of two of the fur seals in the pool playing –
love the way the guy at the top of the pool seems to be waving. But, is he waving at us or at his buddy?
Enjoy!
