Inquisitive Grey Seal
The birds were fooled by my hide but this guy just couldn't believe his eyes and kept coming up for a closer look.

This is a refreshingly different approach to the recent seal stuff.
I like the positioning too.
Good stuff.

This was taken about 40 miles from DN. The afternoon sunlight on the whiskers was irrisistable.

Thanks for the comments

"She" for sure Richard - pleasing image though as the sunlight really has picked up the wiskers :wavey:

Really different and very attractive shot. Just find the browny reflections at the top right a bit distracting :smile:
