Marine Mammal Release

Yesterday I took pictures for the SCOPE of a Marine Mammal Release. Three California sea lion pups and five elephant seal pups, that were rescued and had been nurtured back to health at the Marine Mammal Center in the Marin Headlands, were released back into the wild in honor of World Oceans Day.
 
I took pictures at the Center, and then at Chimney Rock in Point Reyes. My picture shows the five elephant seal pups catching their breath after the long journey. In the background are some adult elephant seals.
