We saw a seal in the Thames!

It's aleays exciting to see wildlife in the wild!

Whoops- always!

How lovely, although how they manage to survive in the sewagey water I don’t know.

There is a marine life organisation that asks people to notify them of a sighting.

That's exciting. It must mean there's good fish in there now which means cleaner water.

Frequently see them in my part of the world on the South Coast. It's great they are in the Thames too.

We saw a couple of seals- also swimming upstream in the Thames near Greenwich last year. Lifted our day!

Not seals - but a pod of Orcas just off the Northumberland coast. Videos on Tik-toc.

Sadly we very recently had a dead orca carcass wash up on our local

Dh did report it.?

Brilliant Witzend must’ve made your day, it would mine 🦭

I also saw one from the train going over Kew Bridge. I thought it was a person and couldn’t understand why they were swimming in the Thames on a cold day. Then realised it was a seal. Quite cheering really!

Lovely. My Dad used to go down near Richmond to fish when I was little. Good that the water is clean again.

Amazing ..
