An Atlantic grey seal has been photographed feeding on a harbour porpoise for the first time in Manx waters. 

The set of photos were taken at the Point of Ayre earlier this summer by Gary Weightman, of Vannin Photos, who posted them on Facebook.

Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch recognised the tail stock as that of a porpoise and contacted him for further information.

Gary told Siobhán Fletcher he was shocked to discover his photos were of such scientific significance.
