Wind and waves are still very strong. This is a hard landing. I replaced the assault boat. The initial five or six minutes of the road actually opened within fifteen or six minutes. Rain mixed with the waves and his head was closed. I took a bag with a camera and took my head. Drowning in his feet, the sea after a short time will wet his jacket, the weather in Antarctica is really changing, it is not ruthless.
Pedestrian Bay ”is a seal colony. When she goes ashore, she is “warmly welcomed” by two or three Weddell seals on the beach. It seems that the little guy with a round head just ate, and next to him there was a fish. Bones, having heard movements, lifted their tails, raised their eyes curiously and looked at our intruders, and they looked so cute.
However, the loud noise that came close by attracted me. In the past, it was a group of elephant seals. The world's largest fur seals, southern elephant seals in the southern hemisphere and northern elephant seals in the northern hemisphere. The entire coast is clearly the territory of these giants, they are 3-6 meters long and weigh up to 3 tons. Due to the estrus period, we are reminded to stay away from these seasoned big guys, especially to keep up with him, because elephants are most afraid that others will interrupt his retreat to the sea, otherwise it will be furious.
I walked carefully along the hail-covered beaches with a strong wind of seven or eight, and the rain and snow were still shrouded, I don’t know which particles hit my face, and it hurts. However, for fat and fat guys like seals, this obviously doesn’t matter much, watching them swim in nearby sea water or sleeping on the beach, calmly, without worrying. In fact, this St. John's wort has a double characteristic of walrus and seal: he has a round big head with a pair of convex, glass-like eyes and eyes. At the top there are three or four thick hairs. Two obese people are decorated with counting beards. The male seal has a long nose that can be stretched. Whenever he is excited or irritated, his nostrils are greatly enlarged. The muscles of the whole body tightly tightened, and all emotions and sorrows were expressed, and the expression was very rich
Sea elephants are typical of "polygamy" in the animal world. To take a place, a fierce battle is often waged between elephants. The king becomes the winner, but there are groups of wives and shackles. Losers find another way. The male elephant seal has dozens of "wife and wife", so you need to be vigilant against the enemy. This season is a time of struggle between life and death. Only when the two sides are angry do they stand up and hold the body firmly with their hind legs. With all her strength, opening her mouth, standing up against each other, making a loud “creaky” sound, accompanied by snoring of the earth, until the battle was bruised and bruised, the skin became fleshy, blood did not flow, female seals present simply watched never help at work.
In the war for dividing the sphere of influence, the passionate elephant of the sea loves to boast of a strange long nose, constantly roaring, swelling and stuffed into the nose, which is unusually swollen and noticeable and makes a “rattling” squeak, a feeling It is used for bluffing, there is no practical use, look at the scene in front of you, it’s really chaotic, don’t look at them, there are almost no natural enemies, but young elephant seals often die in this chaotic mess, like a group of seals.
The wildlife world in Antarctica is much more exciting than those that can be seen on television and in magazines.
