It seems the life of our local New Zealand Fur Seals involves hunting, eating and sleeping with the occasional yawn in between.
The most common Pinniped species in South Australia, worryingly they are breeding up at a faster rate than the other species here like the endangered Australian Sealion causing, an unnatural imbalance occurring believed to be mostly as a result of human activities.

Nice detail, timing, and "pop" from the complimentary colored BG. Think this would also look good in a vertical format.

Seems my quote function is not working ?

Cheers and taa for looking, and yes, it already comes in vertical format as well, but horizontal is easier to view on a monitor I think

Phil you should be able to RP within the original thread, the 24hr rule only applies to a new thread.
