#fossilfriday skull of an extinct beak whale from the Pliocene of southern California. Used to be on display at the San Diego Natural History Museum (took this in 2003 with my first ever digital camera, a mere 2 mp).

This senior elephant seal bull detected some insult from another, and wasn’t going to let him get away with it. The bull on the right, the challenger, already shows bleeding wounds on his chest shield. I met up with a group of photographers this morning. Two more videos follow.

This newborn elephant seal pup knows what it takes to survive. It chases off the gull that’s trying to steal the rich milk.

Lots of newborn elephant seal pups on the beach! They struggle to nurse, but succeed well enough. Another pregnant female comes ashore in the background. Beautiful day after the storm, extremely low tide. Tomorrow at 8 am the tide will be one of the higher of the year, a King Tide.

A group of visitors and I watched this elephant seal mother give birth this morning. That darn gull irritated her, pecking at the birth products as the pup was born. We watched for about an hour and a half.
