SUN-BAKING SEAL A SPECTACULAR SIGHT FOR BEACHGOERS

A sun-baking seal has become a welcome spectacle for walkers on the Blacksmiths breakwater.

First spotted yesterday, the seal returned this morning to the delight of onlookers.

Australian fur seals range from Tasmania and along the Victorian coast, to New South Wales.

This one seemed content with a nap and a dip in the clear waters of Swansea Channel and Blacksmiths Beach.

National Parks officers are monitoring the seal.
