A Walk on the Beach

Just had to share these photos with you! I'd just had a massage and decided that I would take Marlo for a walk along the beach at Esperance. As we approached the local pier, I could see people milling around and pointing and because sea lions are frequent visitors here, I wasn't surprised, thinking it was the usual 'crowd' of three who had arrived.
I heard someone mention 'baby' and when I looked closer, there she or he was, nestled in the rocks, snoozing half in and out of the sun. Mum was stretched out along a pier support close by.
One little girl, eager to get to where I was, and not watching where she was going, almost stepped on the mother, thinking she was a rock!
Marlo took everything in in her usual calm and gentle way - rolling in the mum's dried up poo and sniffing the air around her baby.
My massage, by the way, was absolutely wonderful - as much a psychologist's session as a massage therapy. As she stretched my tight muscles, Neris made insightful observations about my conversation with her and I came away thinking, "All that matters is love - all the rest is ego."
