Many thanks Tristan Bawn for his video - check out his blog here http://www.facebook.com/Source2Sea2013 / http://sourcetosea2013.blogspot.co.uk
A cheeky seal has been caught on camera trying to hitch a ride on a surf board -- 40 miles inland. Keith the seal, who hit headlines earlier this year after anglers tried to murder him, certainly seems at home splashing around a river. While seals are usually found in the sea, Keith has spent the winter delighting locals -- and angering anglers -- swimming in the River Severn near Worcester. It appears the cute grey seal, named after famed Scottish soldier Colonel Keith, has moved, after he joined four pals as they paddled along the river Severn near Gloucester, around 60 miles downriver from Worcester.
