I stumbled on this Grey Seal Pup on the Lurgies path on Christmas Eve and just to be sure I reported it to the SSPCA who will keep an eye on it. Perhaps it's not the best place to give birth with walkers, birders and wildfowlers all using the path and when the tide is out the water is a fair distance away. Let's hope it makes it.

When first seen this little chap was quite annoyed at my presence and snarled a warning more than once
When I walked back down the path it was asleep and looked to be dreaming. Note it looks well fed and uninjured and an adult was swimming further upstream.
