My husband and I spent an breezy morning watching the Atlantic seal on the rookery although we were disappointed that there seemed to be fewer this year than last.
This old bull hauled out of the sea and was on the look out for females and a fight if necessary with other bulls.
This video was taken on Horsey beach in north Norfolk last Christmas. The Grey Seals give birth along the beach every year and its a spectacular sight to see!
This little seal launched itself onto a ledge at the marina across from me around noon Mar17. I watched it all day. At first it seemed to be sunbathing, but then it lay down, and got stiller and stiller as the day progressed. Around 4, a man noticed it and stood above it looking down. it looked up at him, and then over at him when he moved further away. I waited until 6ish, then approached quietly from downwind and took 2 quick pictures. He didn't move. I'm not certain if I can see puncture wounds on the close up or not. (next pic) He still hadn't moved at dark, and we were so sure we'd see his lifeless body the next morning.
However, he was gone at daybreak, and we hope the long rest revitalized him and he is OK.

If you fish from the beach they follow you until you hook a fish - them they steal it away from you before you can git to the beach.
