Prolonged seal sighting during SRC whaleboat rowing FINALLY captured on video this morning! Every other time I’ve seen these seals, we were actively rowing, or I couldn’t get my phone camera ready in time. The only previous sighting which was close-up that I had was when I got near one in my kayak in this same area (the Carquinez Strait). It took YEARS to get this footage, but it’s always a great joy to be able to see nature like this, especially since they know they have nothing to fear from us.
