If you want me to tell you whether this sea lion, perched on a rock in the Sea of Cortes in Mexico, is mad, worried or happy, I couldn't say. I don't think I'd mess with him but he and the other sea lions seem to have a good life on their little island. And the honking noise they make is probably and exclamation of joy. Who knows.

Mood aside, I appreciate the way this sea creation struck a pose for me on the last day of our Un-Cruise Adventures voyage on the good ship Safari Endeavour.

Here are a few more from our morning visit to the little island:
