Description
Female Northern Elephant Seal with her newly born pup at the Piedras Blancas rookery located just a few miles north of San Simeon and the Hearst Castle, off of California Highway 1.
It all started on November 25, 1990, when two dozen northern elephant seals were spotted in the small cove near the Piedras Blancas lighthouse. Every year after that the seals returned, growing in population each time. Today more than 17,000 elephant seals that call the Piedras Blancas rookery home, migrating thousands of miles to this secluded sandy beach twice per year.
