Ah, my people!

My friends have always joked that seals were my people--it has something to do with the expression in my eyes and the fact that I am more graceful/at home in the water than on land. I come from a long line of Scots, with their legends of selkies--seal-people, usually women, who marry mortals. Seals and salmon both have long-standing importance in Scottish myth. At the moment, however, a wily seal named Andy has decided to follow the salmon upstream and is causing quite a ruckus. Only the Scots would make a concerted effort not only to save the precocious seal but to ensure he would be able to pursue seal sex in the safety of a colony. :)
