I am not familiar with some of the behaviour terms listed so I can't tick this box. We watched it for about an hour, and it was still there an hour later.

14:0014088Within 100m14070Sunny14074Calm114101Not recorded14098AdultThe seal was large and very dark in colour. Seal was very playful/curious following me on my paddleboard all the way around Old Harry. I sit on a secluded beach (about 200metres around Old Harry towards Swanage) and the seal was "bottling" for an hour (I was on the beach reading my book). The seal then followed me mostly back to middle beach.
