After the seals on the harbour I could not resist.

A couple shots from December on iceflows in Antarctica. An inappropriately named crabeater seal that only eats krill, a cold water shrimp, and a Weddell seal (I think - not too easy to tell the difference at times).

C&C always apreciated,
Thanks,

Very nice!

Was the second one bleeding from the mouth or had he just eaten something?

Most probably from a fight with another seal rather than feeding. Most of the seals down there just eat krill except for the leopard seal which gets about half it's food from penguins.

Cheers,

Photography is my only pathological addiction; hopefully it won't drive me to something worse. :rolleyes: :oops:
