Beach-ed Sea Lions

Taken with Fuji Finepix S6800 Zoom, in the Galapagos Islands.

Whilst sea lions look pretty, they stink to high heaven, smelling something like a mixture of old fish and wet dog, and seem to spend most of their time lounging on the beach. They are quite comical on land with their clumsy clown like movements, but in the water their grace and manoeuvrability is amazing, and will swim over you, under you and all around you, especially the young ones who haven't got used to strange jumped-up apes floundering around in the water with them.
