Rescuers have been monitoring the sea off the Norfolk coast after a whale was spotted stranded near the shore.

The pilot whale was first seen on Sunday near Snettisham, Norfolk, and while it seemed to float out on the tide, it has come back.

The whale is thought to be a young mammal that became separated from its pod, Julia Cable, from British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR), said.

"If it's an animal that can be rescued, we have the right equipment - we have people who can come out and do that," she said.
