Another Leopard Seal

A deflated looking leopard seal was hanging out on a bergy bit in Hero Inlet today. It wasn't moving much, but I got to get out on the water and get a good look at it- I watched it for a while just stretch and yawn. Nothing exciting, but awesome to watch.

I watched it through the scope from the galley, and it was yawning a lot. I couldn't get a shot of it opening it's maw wide, even though I saw it plenty. So here's a nice shot of the teeth and pink mouth. I hope to see more of these as the season goes on... from a nice distance. But the natural curiosity of these animals could bring one closer. That would be very cool.
