May 9B, 2008 Slackin at low tide.

SPUCK · 05-09-2008, 04:13 AM

Wasn't sure the antler spam was the Friday ani mule shot so I figured I'll run this.

I caught this shot down at our City's wharf.

how do they get up there?
- climb? (nah),
- jump out of the water (clever)
- swim at high tide and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait

and the more important question: what do they taste like?

They have a faintly fishy flavor, like a bald eagle. And yet their meat is surprisingly stringy, much like a Siberian tiger's.

Kind of like a cross between manatee and Tazmanian tiger?

Do they smell ickie Bruce???

The beach where I went to see some, was on the nose totally. Apparently, they regurgitate the bones, skin etc that they cant digest.

Bet there's some impressive snoring happening, too.

in the old wharf section of newport, oregon there is a resident colony of sea lions who live on and around the unused docks and pilings. i found them when i heard (and smelled) what sounded like an old man coughing up a lung made of 3 day old, rotting fish. which... i guess... is kind of what they were doing.

Gravdigr · 05-09-2008, 02:23 PM

Looks like a bit of seal(ion?) cheesecake to me....

I likewise have visited Newport, made the mistake of staying in a waterfront motel across the inlet from the sealion hangout(haul out). Damn things kept us awake all night.
