A seal was washed onto a busy road in Pembrokeshire by winter storms this morning.

The seal caused heavy traffic during the morning rush hour after becoming stuck on Blackbridge in Milford Haven.

Police and the Welsh Marine Life Rescue were called just after 9am to usher it back towards the water after shutting down the road, but found it 'uncooperative'.

The seal was eventually herded onto banking around Castle Pill, where it then plunged 20ft into the water before swimming away unharmed.
