Today we headed back to Bradshaw's Beach to check on the progress of our little stranded seal. The sky was blue and even though it was a cool 39 degrees, the sun was warm. The ocean was blue and calm with gentle waves breaking over the beach.
Where the baby seal had been there was only a trail leading down to the high water line where he apparently took to the ocean once again. We were glad to see him gone and equally glad to see his flipper marks in the sand return to the sea.
Bradshaw's Beach returns to await the summer visitors with their books, beach towels and sandals. No one will know while they are running in the surf that their beach was a home for a few days to a stranded baby seal.
Really enjoyable story, Joan, which I can see in a local newspaper along with the wonderful images. That must have been so exciting for you and Steve to find this baby seal on the beach to photograph. I look forward to your next posting!
