Talking Lounging About in Morro Bay

Here's some shots of some Sea Lions sunning themselves on a dock in the harbor at Morro Bay. Boy, talk about the life of O'Reilley. Thanks for looking, I'll share some more tomorrow.

These are great close up shots Fred. The last time I saw Sea Lions they were wide awake and noisy, it is great to see these Sea Lions sunning themselves quietly. They look so relaxed.

Nice shots Fred. These guys look like they are in the snooze zone big time! Great details and the clours and textures of their fur is unreal.

I love this set! They're beautiful images of an animal that some people never get to see. You've also captured their essence because being a sea lion is clearly very exhausting. I mean with the sleeping and eating and then sleeping again the days are very full...where's the time to relax?
