A common reaction to this photo is to chuckle about the "buck
teeth". Depending, however, on your viewing device, and the size
of the image it provides for you, you might be able to easily
see that there are no buck teeth at all. Funnier than that, it
is his tongue he is sticking out at us.
When the colony of
seals here first spotted me near the edge of the beach, all of the members
in my immediate area scurried to the water's edge, not actually entering
the sea, but looking back and evaluating my presence. After a few minutes
they concluded that I was not a threat, and for the most part settled back
into their afternoon naps. This little guy, however, never took his eyes
off of me, but continued to stare at me as if "What is that guy doing?" or
"Why on earth would he want to take photos of us?"
