Short snouted seahorses.

As the title says, found in the Thames during the last 18 months, just heard a report on the radio about them , don't know how they found them though as every time I go out in the estuary it looks about the same colour as coffee.

I was wondering if this story was left over from Tuesday? As I've only once seen a seahorse in the Red Sea, finding one in the Thames Estuary does sound a bit unlikely.

They have been spotted around Plymouth. Seeing one in the Thames does sound unlikely. Seeing anything in the Thames sounds unlikely.
