THE Warrington Seal made an appearance at the weekend.
It was spotted in the River Mersey, near Riverside Retail Park, when Lynette Stirrup was out for a walk with her two children yesterday, Sunday.
In her video, Lynette captures the seal in a Total Wipeout situation when it learns the hard way you can't swim up a weir while battling the current.
But it was still in good spirits and briefly greeted the family before swimming back the other way.
Lynette said: "It had taken a wrong turn and ended up stuck near a waterfall.
"After a while it managed to find its way back into the open part of the river.
"The children were delighted to have been able to see it."
