A Visiting Colony
We have some loud guests occupying the docks and breakwaters down by Westview Marina and the Lodge at Tahsis Harbour... sea lions! For 2 days now, they have been causing a ruckus with their constant barking, and posing for photographs.

From Canadian Geographic: Groups of sea lions have many names depending on where they are: on land they are a colony, in water they are called a raft, during breeding seasons they're referred to as a rookery and when several females are in one male's territory, they're called a harem.
