The Steller sea lions are endangered species with a decline in population of 80%. This was a cute one that came close to shore when we were photographing eagles.

Hope you enjoy,

All comments are welcome.

Nice one Juan. I like the wary look on his face and the diagonal positioning of his head in the frame.

Nicely done- just enough fill flash. Another opportunist looking for an easy meal!

Nice image Juan. This sea lion is very cute. I didn't see any this close when I was in Homer. It looks like you did well.

Great going! Being ready for anything that comes along really paid off here. I always enjoy seeing the marine mammals. Well done and thanks for dropping in at Wildlife!
