KEITH the seal has been snapped eating its lunch in Bewdley for the second time this week.

The seal was first seen in the Wyre Forest area on New Year’s Day in Bewdley and has caused a stir in the local media.

Since then, the seal has been snapped at Stourport Marina on Wednesday before swimming back to Bewdley to grab a bite to eat today.

Katie Marshall, of Kidderminster, said: “We were eating our chips and he popped up with his dinner. It was great.”

Keith has been spotted a number of times up the River Severn in the last few months, the first being in Upton-upon-Severn in November.

Despite being named after a Royalist commander in the English Civil War, it is thought that Keith is actually a female.
