A HUNGRY seal was spotted enjoying a fish feast on the River Mersey at Warrington by local photographer Darren Moston.
Darren who lives in Latchford and enjoys taking wildlife pictures around the town, was in the right place at the right time to capture a stunning picture of the seal feasting on a large Pike.
There have been numerous seal sightings in the Mersey in Warrington in the past couple of years – and judging by the size of the Pike it is no surprise they keep returning for more!
Most sightings have been near Warrington Rowing Club or near the stretch of the Mersey near Victoria Park.
As these pictures show, the hungry seal soon made a meal out of the Pike!

Amazing photo – and great to see such wildlife in the once polluted River Mersey 🙂
I used to think seals were cute. The poor pike didn’t even look dead as it was being eaten – yuk!
Some wildlife photo’s are just too graphic.
Ah yes SHA those evil seals, why can’t they kill their prey humanely , just like the pike do? 😀 😀 😀 It’s nature, get over it.
Great photos.
