Galapagos Sea Lion and Blue Footed Boobies

A Galápagos sea lion drops by to give these blue-footed booby parents its best wishes on their new baby. The boobies probably have nothing to worry about — Galápagos sea lions prefer to get their food underwater.

The blue-footed booby chick stands out due to its fuzzy, soap-like plumage. While still a fledgling, these feathers can get so poofy that the baby looks bigger than its parents.
