"My Brand New Baby !"

Grey Seal Mother With Her New Born Pup

 

I was so excited & nervous about seeing my first seal pup born, I was shaking & managed to get every shot out of focus LOL !!

Happy that the pup is ok, through it looks a little traumatised in the photo it was soon being cleaned up by it's Mother & was suckling when I left.

Unfortunately it's first view of the world was of me hiding in the dunes - I know I wasn't looking my best . . but i'm sure it tried to go back in! ;o))

Lovely to see It enter the world & even a grizzled old codger like me was quite moved by it all !
