In this post glamy enquired about a the Australian Sea Lions (aka Eared Seal) on Kangaroo Island.

glamy, when you're down that way, go and visit, it's a must. Take a long lens though, you can only access the beach at Seal Bay with a National Parks escort and can't approach the animals (unless they come to you) due to the beach being a highly protected and rare remaining colony.

All of these are with the 80-400VR.

#3 - Feed time!

#4 - Who's got bad breath?

A bit of a departure from my normal subjects, so comments and critique appreciated :D

Daniel,
Thanks for posting. These are nice shots, I like #3 best. I have been there a couple of times and on these occasions only had a video camera. I was thinking of having the 70-200 + TC and the 28-70 (two of us taking pictures).
Cheers,
Gerard
