Fur seal romance

The thick pelt of Galapagos fur seals insulates them well against the cooler waters around the archipelago but means they bake in the equatorial sun. So during the day they hide in shady underwater grottos and caves formed by the lava coast - a perfect setting for cameraman Richard Wollocombe to capture this intimate courtship behaviour.
