Seal pup takes break from storm on Alki Beach

     
Late this afternoon, a pup had a respite from today’s stormy weather on Alki Beach, directly across from Duke’s Chowder House. The couple who watched over the seemingly healthy and alert pup until our volunteer arrived aptly named him Duke. A series of crashing waves and an incoming tide prompted the pup to return quite suddenly to the Sound - just minutes before a pounding rain hit West Seattle. This pup was on the thin side as most of the weaned pups tend to be. That is, except for our full-figured beauty, Queen Latifah, who hauled out yet again today on the City side.
