Subject: Henry is back
Hi everybody -
The young male Elephant Seal which hauled out at Point Henry (Geelong,
Vic)
last year is back in Port Phillip Bay, albeit only just. He is now
relaxing
on the bay beach (Springs Beach) at Point Lonsdale, just inside the Rip,
approximately opposite the eastern end of Albert Street. Apparently he
appeared sometime late yesterday and went for a stroll (perhaps not the
best
word to use) up the bank to the edge of the main street. How long he
might
stay is anybody's guess. There is someone keeping an eye on him and
warning
visitors not to approach too closely. However, you can get to within
15m or
so. It doesn't seem to bother him. I received a small info sheet,
presumably put together at his last visit, which says he weighs about a
tonne. Looks to me as if he has put on some weight since.
Cheers,
Hugo
