Taken at the end of October this young seal was about to get it's first taste of the sea on the incoming tide. Taken in Pembs from a high cliff.

Hi Robert
Certainly 'bucks the trend' for a low view point and for me it works well - I like it!

Nice image Robert, well spotted & well taken.
The high p.o.v does work well here.
It may not bother the Seal going in there for the first time but it would bother me, I bet its freezing cold

Nice enviro shot
Reminds me of the time I did volunteer wardening on Ramsey Island, Wales when it was an RSPB reserve in the 1970s and the pups moving out of the narrow coves there, happy days gone by
