Photographers have captured charming images of grey seal pups at Donna Nook Nature Reserve.
The reserve is located on the Lincolnshire coast near Louth.
Hundreds of visitors visit each year to witness the pupping season.
The season typically runs from October to December.
This year, 1,924 seal pups were born at the reserve.
That figure is 274 higher than last year’s total.
Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust said last year saw a significant drop in numbers.
It confirmed adult seals have now returned to sea.
Twelve pups remain visible from the public viewing area.
