This colony of seals were spotted basking in the summer heat today in Donegal.
The happy herd had a lazy day at Tramore beach at the holiday resort of Cuan na Ri. Some 21 seals were pictured by eagled-eyed reader Emma Wallace. It looks like some then got tired of waiting on the sun and went off for a dip in Sheephaven Bay!
Met Eireann have forecast a warm weekend for the North West, so hopefully the seals will catch some of those promised sunny spells between showers!
Thanks to Emma for sending in the photos. If you have nature photography to share, email info@donegaldaily.com
