Harbor Seal, hoping for a handout in Oregon. Look at those big "puppy-dog" eyes.....

Those eyes looked added on for effect. LOL.
Starting a NEW gallery of my better bird shots. Due to flickr changes I felt it was a good time to explore elsewhere for future postings:

Impressed as I was by its eyes, I wasn't about to give up any of the 23 lb salmon I had caught to it!!

Nope, it's official, the verdict is in. Those aren't real, those are glued on googly-eyes.

:D

THEY ARE SO CUTE! Parus, you just introduced me to the worlds most adorable animal. It's like, folding up sideways!

Good timber does not grow with ease:

The stronger wind, the stronger trees.

The further sky, the greater length,

The more the storm, the more their strength.

Haha, I think the goal is to keep their flippers up off the ice, and let the furriest, fattest part of their bodies take the brunt of the cold. But it makes them look like little smiles. And then that face they make!
