Piedras Blancas Elephant Seal Rookery

I very much suggest this particular location if you can visit. It's totally free and it's positively packed with elephant seals, as well as hungry squirrels and crows. If you like wildlife, this is not to be missed. You can find more information through this link, but of course I'm also going to show you how adorable some of the animals are right below.

Here are a couple of these lovelies in the water.

There were a lot of them sleeping. Don't they look soft??

Their faces have so much personality!

You can practically hear the funny little sound when this soft baby pushes their nose into the sand.

Plan to bring something healthy to feed the squirrels when you visit! They will absolutely beg!

I love how you can see their tiny mouth in this photo.
