2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Galapagos sea lion, Galapagos National Park, Ecuador
Sunny Morning

Species: Galapagos sea lion | Location: Galapagos National Park, Ecuador

This was a very early morning and the sun was just starting to get bright. This young sea lion decided to solve the problem by covering her eyes. She would peek out once in a while and appeared to almost be waving to us, but would always go back to this position to shade the peepers.
