San Simeon Schoolhouse and Hearst Castle
Sleeping Females
Biding his Time
Challenge (Pups scramble out of the way as this male elephant seal issues a challenge to an interloper who would steal his harem.)
Elephant Seal Family (A proud male spends time with his harem and offspring.)
Elephant Seals near San Simeon (Mothers and their pups relax on the sand on a cold, February morning. Some seals have sand on their bodies; they use their flippers to move the sand, which may act to insulate body heat.)
Male Elephant Seal (Note the scarred neck on this mature male - he's had many serious battles to secure his harem. He's taking a well deserved catnap.)
Battle for the Harem (Early morning light breaks over the beach near San Simeon, along the central coast of Califoria. Two males issue a frightening series of bellows through their massives noses,  before doing battle over the rights to the harem.)
