these guys are the "rejects" that are driven off from the mail beach because they are too small to compete with the bigger bulls so imagine how big they are.

Be careful getting too close. They can get ornery.

Very nice work! Really like the eyes in #3. Next time, check the "store original" box to let us see them enlarged.

Ano Nuevo is the main area where they next but a better area is just a little south of the park (fee entry) at a place called Cove beach. You can get closer but no closer that 25ft. Not as many and not as big (these are the rejects) but you can get some great closeups.
