Lovely weather.

There was an injured seal at Scorching Bay today, it was the same grey as the sand it had beached itself on. The seal was breathing fast and there was a hole in its side. Every so often someone would ring DOC and they'd say they knew about it already. We warned each other to stay away and gave the seal a bit of peace as it rested in the warm sun.

The DOC fact sheet "Ab-Seal-utely Wellington" http://www.doc.govt.nz/regional-info/008~Wellington/004~Conservation/Seals-Fact-Sheet.pdf
says "Seals can survive quite major injuries if they are in good condition." which gave me some hope.
