Antarctic Fur Seal pups at play

February 24, 2006

Here at the dilapidated old whaling station in Stromness Bay the Antarctic Fur Seals have literally taken over the grounds. Hundreds of playful pups are on the beach to greet us as we land at the site where Ernest Shackleton finished his amazing journey from Elephant Island. These curious pups will come right to you if you simply lie down on the beach and wait!
