    Were they stranded originally or reared in captivity and then released?

    They always come in towards my dog in Cullinamore (sp?) when he's in the water swimming!
    He's black in colour and they get curious!

    Funny stuff!

    They were stranded originally so they were rescued by the sanctuary and then when they were ready to be released they bought them back to near where they were found.

    I never have a camera with me when it happens.

    TBH they get pretty close to him! He doesn't even notice them!
