Here’s the other pinniped species that lives in the Galápagos Islands — the Galápagos fur seal. Unlike the sea lions, which were everywhere, I didn’t see too many of the fur seals, and they were a bit more skittish to our presence. This guy was having a good nap atop the, presumably, comfortable lava rocks of Santiago Island. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 330mm) ISO 500, f/5.6 at 1/640th of a second
