  1. πŸ“£ Breaking news! Seals have super smooshable faces.

    I did not know this, but Oriole (aka Princess Lardass) decided to demonstrate.

    Photos taken as I unloaded her at the rehab center, after a 4 hour relay to get her to her new home.

    And of course I took photos to share. Enjoy!

  3. @KateShaw 's new episode is about elephant seals:

    the heaviest pinneped, with some males being nearly elephant sized, and capable of astonishing dives of up to 1,753 meters deep for the northern elephant seal, and 2,388 meters deep for the southern.

    ... and ... a surprising journey.

  4. Some birds and beasts seen at Pt. Lookout, NY, yesterday on a very cold day!

    These are:
    Harbor Seal:
    This individual popped up three times to check me out on the jetty I was taking pictures from.

    Red-throated Loon

    A pair of male Common Eiders

    King Eider:
    Well, it would be a Queen Eider, in this case. Eiders are large diving ducks (although they will sometimes feed at the surface like dabblers). King Eiders nest in the far reaches of the north. The migrate down the coasts, but are not common in our area. And, they are threatened by climate change, fossil fuel extraction and other human impacts. I was hoping to see this bird, and lucked out. I just realized the way I cropped the image, it looks like the two ducks in the foreground are sitting in a movie theater watching a movie on the Big Screen πŸ˜†

  5. It felt nice to dip my feet back into digital art again. Now I need to figure out how this sticker paper I'd bought works.

  6. Ridiculously late for Lunar New Year but I needed a fun little thing to ease myself back into digital art. εΉ΄εΉ΄ζœ‰ι±Ό (Have fish every year) is a common saying around New Years, as a wish for prosperity. And well, seals love fish.

  8. My project is off hiatus today. My non-existent attention span has me working on cards at different stages all at once, and also the blank cards' slick surface forces waiting on drying times between color layers.

  9. #Inktober Day 15: #Dagger

    Based loosely on footage of when a juvenile Hawaiian Monk Seal had gotten ahold of a discarded fishing knife. Thankfully in that situation, experts removed the knife without injury.

  10. Snoring male elephant #seal at Ano Nuevo State Park in #California yesterday. They look so lazy because they swim thousands of miles before hauling out for the winter.

  11. A day with a Hawaiian monk seal is better than a day without. I'll take any dollop of joy I can get these days. Grief is a heavy veil.

  12. Grey seal in profile.

    This guy (gal?) was just parked off Gooseberry in the sun, head above water, looking around for the entire time I had him in view as I hiked, a solid 15 minutes.

  13. Cute animal alert!

    As well as abandoned places, I also love to photograph cute #seals. I have loads of photos just sitting on my hard drive, but I have unleashed them upon the world. Look into their eyes, and succumb to their cute charms.

    My portfolio of all things "sealy" is now live on my website for you to enjoy - /www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/portfolio/i-love-seals/
