Description
Believe it or not, this is a sea lion I shot in the Willamette River in downtown Portland, Oregon. He must be 120 miles (190 km) from the ocean. I've lived here a little over 20 years and never seen or heard of one in the city. He created quite a stir among the few of us who saw him.
He made very short work of that fish. :-)
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

What an amazing picture and you were definitely in the right spot at the right time. When I saw the picture I thought you were at the Bonneville Dam taking pictures of the sea lions there who are eating all the fish, much to the fishermen's dismay.
Awwwww sushi tonight!!!!!! wow is he out of his element!!!! I can't believe he's all the way in there???? Something must be wrong with the fishing where he usually lives???? Kind-a makes you wonder????????????? Besides all of this, L O O K at the shot you've captured????? SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!VOTE for perfect timing!!!!
WOW!! WHAT AN AMAZINGGGG AND FANTASTIC CAPTURE !!HERE =you EVEN GOT HIS LUNCH !!~ how cool is that !!! awesome !! V!
It's a really cute shot just a pity nothing is in focus... But excellent compo and framing.
This is an incredible shot! I can tell you that I worked on the Willamette for quite a while and never saw a sea lion!
Fishing must be good. He sure looks healthy. Glad you got to see and share the occasion.
Excellent capture. You have to love being there for natures little surprises.
Amazing photo. Glad you just happened to be there to see this guy. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, great find of this unsual visitor here! Must have been a thrilling experience to see it on this location!
How interesting that he lives in the river. Maybe fishing is scarce this year?? He seems to have caught quite a yummy one here though!
Well, Dennis, perhaps he came from California! Were there real estate agents chasing him? LOL...but seriously, this is a great photo. In looking over your posts since I last checked in a month ago, I'm just blown away by the quality and diversity of your work. Extraordinary!
Excellent capture. Perfect timing
Great pic! It tells an amazing story. Your river must be very clean and inviting to have sea lions and golden fish :)
Amazing capture!
