    HI there, I'm new to this project - just heard about it this morning in the news. Just wanted to know if anyone else is seeing a sea lion on the left side of the picture, almost in the middle lengthwise. Or are some rocks playing tricks with me and i'm seeing a sea lion bcs i like them so much? Thanks, Sanni

    Hi Sannir
    Welcome to PenguinWatch. I think this might well be a case of wishful thinking.
    This is the same site the next day http://talk.penguinwatch.org/#/subjects/APZ0000hgz - and like all good rocks the shape hasn't moved!
    Its also a long way up from the water and while penguins can climb remarkably well, I'm not sure about sea lions.
    We do occasionally find seals if that is any consolation. http://talk.penguinwatch.org/#/subjects/APZ00032mj
