Seal enjoys fresh fish breakfast at Hastings

Local photographer Marie Richardson was in the right place at the right time to capture these pictures of a seal enjoying its breakfast in the sea off Hastings at the weekend.

Marie, who is known for her wildlife photos, joked: “I didn’t fancy having raw fish at 8am so I stuck to my coffee. The weather was a bit hazy, but the seal was close enough to get some pictures.”

The fish the seal caught was said to be a good sized bass and it caught several more in the time that she was watching it.

The waters off Hastings and Fairlight have a thriving seal population and the creatures can often be spotted on the breach.
