This particular Fur Seal played around the F/V Chelsey
for 2.5 hours and toyed with their incoming salmon,
but it ended up not touching any of them after all.

My husband says,
"They're are the most social of all mammals
that I have ever seen"...

Well, "Hello"...

A scenic capture of stunning
Yakobi Island Harbor...

My husband was up early at the break of sunrise,
heading out to the fishing grounds,
while this particular captain sleeps on...

These Murres
(the seabirds in the middle)
posture and appear just like miniature Penquins,
while sharing their floating log with Seagulls...

The Murres boldly
"standing at attention"
to the Seagull...

Salmon Shark just chomped off
the other half of Captain Max's
dandy King Salmon...
