Stunning pictures show seal lounging on the River Adur near Henfield

Videographer James first spotted the seal – which he has affectionately nicknamed Neil – while on a rubber dingy trip down the river last week. James said: “He’s been there a few days. He was very inquisitive and followed us in the boat home! We followed the river back on foot with a camera the next day and found him lounging in the sun with plenty of fish bones next to him. Haven’t seen him for a few days now, so I hope he’s made it back to sea okay.”
