King Of The Dock

Astoria Oregon has an abundance of sea lions. On a recent trip I watched a game of King Of The Dock.

This sea lion was enjoying a sunny spot on the dock....

Sea Lion 1 - King of the dock

When this guy decided he wanted the same sunny spot....

Sea Lion 2 - claiming his place on the dock

A noisy discussion ensued (without waking the sleeping neighbors) ....

Sea Lion 3 - the fight begins

with the new comer prevailing....

Sea Lion 4 - the fight ends

and becoming the new King Of The Dock....

Sea Lion 5 - new king of the dock

.... and the rest of the gang slept on.

Sea Lion 5 - and the gang sleeps on
