A fresh bird flu threat has led to a warning for holidaymakers heading to the coast as hundreds of seabirds have been found dead on a popular beach.
As a devastating wave of bird flu continues to wreak havoc across Scotland, council workers removed the bodies of 330 birds on Stonhaven beach on Monday and a further 100 today.
Visitors to the beach have been urged to stay away from the bodies, as coming into direct contact with them can increase the risk of possible infections.
