Seals Versus Sea

caught in frigid traps seals struggle against the sea… population culls *Strong waves hurled seals against rock walls, killing some.

Somehow I visualized 'sea gulls' vs. 'seal culls.' Sea gulls flying free. Seal culls smashed into the sea. ~ Just playin'

Yes, Gershon, this is a good insight, except there aren't many gulls around right now. Too much ice, they like a lot of open water. Perhaps, that is why they keep flying free. keep playing...

Thank you for the encouragement. Yes, it was very sad and their voices echoed across the harbor.
