Cape Fur Seal Pup
After a while I came across a young seal pup. Given the howling wind the sand whipped up and covered the poor pup. Combine this with the pup’s wet fur and it was clear he was struggling to see and find his mum. Initially I feared for his survival but was soon relieved to see mum waiting in the surf and, as the pup gradually got closer to the waves, the seawater washed off the sand. The two were eventually reunited and I ventured back to the car. What a first day in Namibia!
