When the person who rode a bike passed them, some of the lions jumped to the water and one or two leaped at the biker.<br />I am glad you like Astoria pictures.

It would be a thrill to see all the sea lions. I wonder if the folks in the boats just walk around them, or maybe they somehow shoo them away?

Как верные псы стерегут подходы к яхтам и тактично ждут хозяев и чего-нибудь вкусненького. Похоже, что они действительно домашние: на спине одного кто-то выбрил цифру "98"?! <br />Чем они там питаются?

Makes me so nervous.Especially after the big bridge that collapsed on the Ohio River many years ago. Silly me. The sea lions must be fascinating to watch and the photographs are beautiful. They may be a little problem for the fishermen but the tourist will love them.<br />Have a wonderful weekend.
