March 22nd is International Seal Day and what better way to celebrate it than with the arrival of a female elephant seal FINALLY coming onto the main island. That being said, the male has spent the whole day on the North Island so there is still only one elephant seal here right now, but I will take what I can get! 

True seals (especially the harbours and the ellies) have always been my favourite animal and I’ve been so lucky to spend these past 3 weeks surrounded by both. I’ve included some of my favourite seal photos below, hope you enjoy!
