This curious seal pup has caused a stir after gatecrashing a paddleboarding class in Aberdeenshire.
Seals and dolphins are common in Stonehaven harbour but it’s unusual for them to get this close to humans.
The video shows the adorable pup having a good sniff of one of the boards before swimming between the group and then heading back off into the open water.
The unexpected visitor was filmed by Dave Jacobs, who runs Stonehaven Paddleboarding.
