Australian Sea Lions
Nothing much going on here on Guernsey at the moment so another one from my Australian archive. The Australian Sea Lion (Neophoca cinerea) is a species of sea lion that breeds only on the south coast of Australia. This was taken during a stay on the fabulous Kangaroo Island.

Thanks

Well I do intend on going back but you'll have to wait a few years for the revised version :smile: That's a sand bank behind them which I guess makes the pov look a little higher than it really was - but yes like you say with what I've learnt since being back I would have been on my stomach for sure.
