Photographers have captured endearing images of grey seal pups along the Lincolnshire coast.
The pups were spotted at Donna Nook Nature Reserve near Louth.
Hundreds of visitors visit the reserve each year during pupping season.
The season usually runs from October to December.
This year, 1,924 grey seal pups were born at the site.
That figure is 274 higher than last year’s total.
Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust confirmed all adult seals have now returned to sea.
Twelve pups remain visible from the reserve’s viewing area.
