My second oldest son Nicky likes small, cuddly things. He was definitely taken aback by the raucous fields of elephant seals, and was sitting quietly looking away from the beach. Suddenly Nicky pointed out this rabbit to me, who, to lapse into Richard Adams’s Lapine vocabulary, stayed tharn long enough for me to capture. Perhaps bunny was, like Nicky, observing the elephant seals and photographer and quietly saying regarding one and all, “Siflay hraka.”
