An uninvited lodger is settling in for the summer at a Brighton property — and the homeowner could not be happier.
About 9am yesterday, a 17-year-old pregnant sea lion named Gem crossed Taieri Mouth Rd to head inland to find a nesting spot away from the "boisterous male sea lions".
However, she caused a commotion when she decided the 100kmh stretch of road was the best place to have a sleep, causing locals to stop and direct traffic around her.
