Grey Seals at Loch Sunart
This seal is never far away from the shore at the cottage. Whilst the otters require a certain degree of stealth to photograph - this fella will always pop up to say hello if we're just pottering about or if the kids are sploshing in the Loch.
I was pleased to see that the 2nd one is on the BBC Nature Homepage.
Different seals from a different stretch of the Loch - they never have the same friendly expression.

Thanks Apache.
Not sure why I said 'Grey' as they're actually 'Common' seals
