skyringFrom release notes for this book, by FutureCat.
On a fence at the beach below the heads, where we stopped for the Australians to get a closer look at some fur seals (Skyring nearly stood on one!).
I did, too! We have seals in Australia, but they generally don't haul themselves out in convenient locations, and the beach at the bottom of the headland near the albatross reserve was very convenient.
As we drove down, rabbits skipped into the bushes, and Wombles was excited about seeing their cute little bunny tails disappearing. Impossible to see unless they move, of course, and then they are running away as fast as they can go.
Seals were visible, about three or four at first glance, and we got out of the car and headed towards them, cameras at the ready. FutureCat, who was born nearby and frolicked amongst the seals as a kitten, was blase and dedicated herself to decorating the landscape with books, as she does so very well. Me, I looked for a good angle on a likely looking seal, and got down on the shingle, looking for a good shot with the blue water and green hills in the background.
I snapped a couple of photographs, and then realised that I was almost on top of another seal, down on the rocks with me. If I'd taken another pace or two I would have stepped on it!
