Ted, as long as they're basking on the rocks, they're in no danger. But seals also have to eat to stay alive and for that reason they catch fish, which makes them vulnerable to orcas. However, I don't think they realize enough that in nature it's a matter of eating or being eaten. Instinctively, however, they're wary. Thank you for this beautiful photograph!
If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!
