Weddell Seals

Weddell seals can aparently close their nostrils individually. They also aparently have no sense of smell!

More Weddell seals

Crab-eater Seals

Leopard Seal

The only leopard seals we saw were basking on small icebergs. This one has the remains of its meal - probably a penguin.

Ring-ins

These are not seals, and they are no-where near Antarctica. They are northern sea-lions that have commandeered a marina in San Francisco. Photo taken on our return journey.
