They are so damn cute.

When I first saw the header I thought, Oh boy this is bad, but then I saw that this was an entirely voluntary encounter and that they had been totally passive and allowed the little guy to dictate the terms. It had to be an amazing experience for the guy on the boat. I hope this works out well and that the little guy has a long and happy life.

Hard not to just reach out and give her a big hug.

1. Those "HI BABY"s were very annoying
2. Someone needs to teach this person to hold their phone the right way
3. All that aside....that's pretty freaking adorable! I can't even stay annoyed about it.


And I wonder if his shorts smelled really bad after...

Life changing, maybe for him. But it would impact my life for sure.

Must have been a predator in the water ? Then it realised how soft and warm the " rock " was and decided to rest awhile. Cool experience !

Very cool!

I'd like to swim with them someday.

The pups anyway.

The big ol' ugly males... Well let's just say that they've :eek: the crap out of me and I think I will avoid them.

At least during mating times. :luv:

Don't want him to think I'm either competition or a potential conquest. :joshsmith: :calvin: :eek:
