EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this heartwarming print captured by Danita Delimont, we witness a delightful scene on the Piedras Blancas beach in California. The juvenile elephant seals, once near extinction in the late 1800s, now bask under the warm sun with their blubbery bodies stretched out on the sandy shores. These playful marine mammals, protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, showcase their charming behavior as they sleep peacefully side by side. With their unique proboscis and endearing whiskers, these carnivorous cuties steal our hearts instantly. The image beautifully captures a moment of togetherness and love among these adorable companions. As they rest together with wrinkled skin and flippers intertwined, it's hard not to feel a sense of joy witnessing such precious family bonds. Thanks to conservation efforts and recovery programs, these pinnipeds have made an incredible comeback from being on the brink of extinction. Their presence along the Pacific Coast Highway brings smiles to all who encounter them. Trish Drury's photography skillfully portrays this interaction between humans and nature without any commercial intent. So let's celebrate this snapshot that reminds us how important it is to protect our wildlife for generations to come!
