Photographers have captured adorable images of grey seal pups at Donna Nook Nature Reserve.
The site lies on the Lincolnshire coast near Louth and attracts large seasonal crowds.
Hundreds of visitors come each year to watch the pupping season.
The season typically runs from October through December.
This year, 1,924 pups were born at the reserve.
That figure is 274 higher than last year, when numbers fell sharply.
Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust confirmed that adult seals have now returned to sea.
Twelve pups remain visible from the public viewing area.
