These seals took over a California beach during the government shutdown — and won’t give it back

Officials say there were no federal workers to stop the animals from taking over the popular tourist area.

Excerpt from this Washington Post story:

It’s unclear whether the initial incursion happened stealthily at night or brazenly during the day — though authorities are almost certain the invasion occurred by sea.

And federal employees who returned from the month-long partial government shutdown decided that it was probably not worth the effort to relocate the roughly 90 individuals involved. That’s because some of them were pregnant or newborns, and all of them were opportunistic elephant seals that have taken over what used to be the tourist area of Drakes Beach, Calif.

Across the nation this week, returning federal workers slogged through backlogs of voicemails, sifted through bursting email inboxes and tried to remember the name of the childhood pet at the beginning of their log-in passwords.

At Drakes Beach, part of the Point Reyes National Seashore, employees had a much bigger problem. Literally. Some of the elephant seal squatters weigh as much as a car.

A colony of nearly 1,500 seals inhabits nearby Chimney Beach, which is protected from binocular-wearing tourists by 100-foot-tall cliffs. But Drakes Beach, with its wide swath of sand and spectacular views of the Pacific, has been claimed by humans. Park officials have used a decidedly low-tech method to enforce an armistice between the mammal species: They waved blue tarps to annoy the seals away from the areas most popular with Homo sapiens.

But the federal government apparently does not regard the tarp-wavers as essential federal employees, so the workers who did it were among the 800,000 furloughed. During that time, according to the Chronicle, high tides and storms battered the seals’ normal habitat.So the seals showed up at the suddenly deserted Drakes Beach, and they brought friends and apparently family, too. Seals give birth during winter, and the unoccupied Drakes Beach appears to be an excellent place to raise pups.

I can’t even begin to bother going through all the posts that have been flagged. Soooooo many. And of course most of them are SFW.

I bought some eggs this afternoon at the farm near my house and decided to make a sausage and egg pizza. I was going to add some arugula as well but forgot to buy some. It’s still damn tasty.

I spent a decent portion of my weekend experimenting with baking some new (to me) bread recipes. Also made a pecan pie for good measure, although I cheated and used a pre-made crust. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
