What a sweet photo! This is a grey seal, Halichoerus grypus :) I love his big flared nostrils and doleful eyes! Where exactly did you see it? I know you have marked Massachusetts on the map, but this of course is a marine spotting. Which reminds me that you can add this to our Marine Mammal mission!
