This Harbor Seal was on the beach at the Outer Banks last week. He was happily sunning himself when he was hit by a wave. What a rare and exciting photo opp for me!

Awesome sight to behold, lucky you! 🙂 Thank you kindly for sharing.
Fantastic. How long did you have wait for this moment?
That sure looks like a happy seal. I didn’t know the NC coast HAD harbor seals….
Sam, I got a call from someone alerting me to the seal’s presence near the place where I was staying in Duck. I hopped in the car and went immediately to the site, brand new camera and new zoom lens in hand! I stayed for about 20 minutes and was asked to take photos for the stranding response team site. Needless to say I came away with hundreds of wonderful shots of the happy guy! I would not have believed it if I hadn’t seen it for myself! In all my years coming to the OBX I have never seen a seal!
Cool. Kinda looks like Sam, though …
You captured pure delight.
