  Wally the walrus entertained crowds by playing in the water, even balancing a starfish on his nose

  'I couldn't believe it when it popped up with a starfish on its face, it was so funny and something you just didn't expect to see!

  But she also issued a warning to people keen to see the walrus in person.'We're urging people to listen to our advice that it is a wild animal and to admire it from afar, don't disturb it and keep dogs on leads.'

  Wally was first seen in Ireland before being spotted in Pembrokeshire.

  Welfare groups believe he came to British waters aboard an ice floe from his Greenland home

  Animal welfare groups monitoring the animal, said to be the size of a cow, believe it came across the North Atlantic Ocean from Greenland on an ice floe.

  The animal has become a local celebrity in Wales, with claims that tourists from as far as Essex have travelled to catch a glimpse of the aquatic visitor.

  Photographer Gareth Davies has been a Wally-watcher since the entertaining creature first swam into Carmarthen Bay last month.

  He has previously pictured the Arctic visitor snoozing and stretching on the RNLI slipway, but said he has never seen such an animated display as wonderful Wally put on this morning.

  The playful animal has built up a huge following, with people travelling from Essex to catch a glimpse of him

  Gareth said: 'He was really enjoying himself swimming through the swell on the high tide near the slipway and then diving down for up to ten minutes at a time to feed.

  'He's looking very good indeed - he's clearly feeding and resting well and has put on a lot of weight in the last couple of weeks.

  'Everyone would like to think that eventually he will find his way home, but in the meantime he seems to be living his best life in Tenby.'
