3 Seals and The Billand Duo

This post was sent to me on Friday evening, this is the first chance I had to post all the photos... Rob and Barb take some great shots and its really hard to choose, so I put as many as I could....

Good Evening Blog Momma,
Well, this morning we went for a search and to our delight found Irma alone and progressing in her molting. She is so goofy right now and beach goers are shocked at her appearence. This session with beach goers is an educational one and folks are talking more of how great this show is. One morning two seals are battling on and in the water...That would be Benny and Kermit. Trying to look good for Miss Irma...both guys wanting her real bad. Well, its as if she has PMS and both boys understand that but...keep trying to persuade her to join them. All she does is give....DA LOOK!!! Both boys go away and sulk. As we watched Irma we noticed a second seal in the water and it turns out to be MR. Benny coming in shore so swiftly in the surf. As he gets to land, he stretches his neck high right and left looking for that hot chick...Irma. He crosses the barrier, enters the seal zone, snorts to Irma as if saying..."PST!! Hey Irma, do you wanna today?" He even scoots all the way to her side as if she 'll change her mind any second. NOPE!! She don't. So off Benny went back to sea, surfing and checking out the chick on the board. It was cute to watch him with all the surfers and they checked him out also. Everyone is getting more and more involved with these three seals out at White Plains. They are enjoying the show and we keep telling them all kinds of info and show them pics of these great mammals. We also found Kermit, all alone at Windsock, moping. Benny has won Irma's attention today...AGAIN! He even had a few scratches we noticed...new ones, and pinkish looking. Even the Janitor is learning all about the seals out there. He even scolds the creeps that bother the seals, another seal angel out there keeping an eye out for Irma, Kermit and Benny. Here are the latest shots of the kids...The Hawaiian Monk Seals being themselves before our eyes. Nature is so Amazing!!!!!!!

Mahalo nui loa Billands! Get the WP reg-lars enamoured, and it'll end up another positive Chester-esque experience.

Love the photo of Benny? riding the wave in! I've seen that look on my son's face.
