December 30th, the end of the year and I couldn’t remembering seeing one of the largest animals that I most always see in the lowers stretch of the American River, especially during the Salmon run, the Big Sea Lions!
So I thought I’d ride down to Discovery Park where you can often see S L at the confluence of the American & Sacramento Rivers, where spawning fish like Salmon often check things out to determine which way should I go to get back to my spawning grounds, or hatchery.
Then I heard a familiar loud splashing sound, along with Gulls circling close above, that let me know not only was a S L close by, but it had made a catch and was in the process of ripping apart the tough skin and scales of its catch to get to the meat of it all!
I felt so fortunate! Yahu!
