Yesterday’s otter-watching in Santa Cruz! We counted many mother and pup pairs with the youngsters clearly practicing diving for their food (and a couple of them also begging for rides LOL)… Apparently the crabs were particularly plentiful this week in the kelp bed! #MarineLife #SeaOtters

Bait-ball of anchovies for dinner on 7/30/25 in near the harbor in Santa Cruz! Pelicans, terns, cormorants, gulls. To the left, you can briefly see one of the harbor seals catching supper. Not pictured in this shot - sea lions and the mackerel also in on the hunt! #MarineLife

Rough week, so please accept this video clip from my walk at the sea last week - I keep giggling at the birds who just act like “eh, we’re fine” and don’t move…
