West End ~ Koa Treasure & Sterling On Historic Nest! 🐥 Musical Nests For Juvies! Harbor Seal 7.4.24

- Our Juvie trio - Koa Treasure & Sterling continue to remain here utilizing both their natal nest and the historic nest. The video opens with Thunder in the early morning perched on a rock when one of the juvies flies in and chases her off (I think this is Koa with so much white in its tail). Then we see Treasure on the natal nest hanging out and watching them flying around. Nice closeups of Treasure! Treasure flies off and lands to the left below the historic nest (the place where Treasure was hanging out after fledging) and on the historic nest is Sterling. Sterling will fly off and swoop around the cam pole and land to the right .
Treasure is then seen flying in to the historic nest and remains here for quite some time. Nice closeups of Treasure! Koa on the other hand is hanging out at the natal nest (closeups on Koa too!) Treasure will fly off the historic nest somewhere.
The cam op pans and found a cute harbor seal on the rocks below close to the ocean. The harbor seal spends about half of its time on land and the other half in water. They can dive up to 1500 feet and hold their breath for up to 40 minutes! An average dive however is typically shallow and lasts around three to seven minutes. Unlike humans, they breathe out before diving deep into the water. They then use oxygen that is already in their blood and muscles while underwater. Their heartbeat actually slows from around 100 beats per minute to just 10!
The diet of a harbor seal consists of flounder, sea bass, cod, squid, and octopus. They actually use their whiskers to help them hunt and navigate by sensing pressure waves from fish and underwater objects!
Koa finds its way to the historic nest and Treasure is seen flying in and joining. They both hang out for a few minutes until the third amigo flies in - Sterling! Koa takes off, then Treasure takes off and Sterling gets the nest all for itself! ♥ Thank you for watching!

Всему своë время, написано📝
В начале Бог создал небо ⛅☁и землю 🌏
Затем создал солнце, луну, звëзды, чтобы был свет, кустарник, цветок полевой, животный мир. Человека по образу и подобию Бога.
Это означает, что мы можем отражать такие же качества, как у Бога. Любовь и справедливость. ❤
