Seals - Farne islands

[www.carljackdaniels.com]

Hi

A couple of seals I saw on a boat trip around the Farne Islands off the Northumberland coast last week. I am unsure what kind these are so any help in identifying them would be appreciated.

Thanks for looking

I did this trip a couple of years ago...really great experience. I bet you had loads of fun...is that a common seal in shots one and two? The grey in three is a lovely portrait.

Lucky. I'd love a trip like this... probably need a longer lens first. Gorgeous seals.

Yep common seals 1 & 2 - look like pups - commons breed early whereas the greys breed September/October time
