Hi folks ... during my search for an avian posting , stayed in the folder and went through the mammals subfolders to dig out this old file from 2014 .
Normally I go in winter to Helgoland for the seals , as then there were normally less people .... but that has changed drastically ..... almost the same about of humans in winter on the beach , just a bit more dressed and not lying in the sand like in summer .
So this is a summer image .... one will find no pups and mostly female and young adults .
This guy was having fun ... in the shallow water .

The splashing doers make it look like a playful time. I could see a version with a bit more top and right as it is borderline tight in the frame IMO. I love those turquoise blues.
