· London
Observer description: Seal lying on the sand. Did move around on land a bit and was watching when people passed by. Appeared young (had orange fur and was on the smaller side) Observer notes: I had seen the seal there the day before also. A member of pub staff told me that a member of the public told him the seal appeared to have lost it mother and that is why it was staying in this location.
