ABYC Seal

24 May 2014

This very calm seal popped into the Algoa Bay Yacht Club to say hello on Saturday evening 24 May 2014.

Apologies about the light.

She lay on the side of the slipway, chilling and listening to the music – as she appeared in distress, the Sailing Commodore phoned our local Bayworld who will check on her in the morning.

According to Bayworld these seals are not used to people so do not run away or recognise two legged beasts as potentially threatening.

Still – I am not going to get much closer in case she gets a little angry with all the attention.
