Rain

A major storm arrived in Piedras Blancas overnight. Rain doesn't faze the seals particularly. Ella is doing well.

The beach is now full of adult seals and pups. Some have commented that they seem late this year. I've looked at photos from previous years and am not sure there is much difference. Perhaps USGS Wildlife Biologist Brian Hatfield will have a report later on the timing of this year's birth season.
