A helicopter was spotted circling Edinburgh's Arthur's Seat during the early hours with its spotlight focussing on the crags.
Locals in the area were awoken by the sound of the unknown aircraft around 12.30am on Monday, June 5, and took to social media after the helicopter seemingly circled the beauty spot for half an hour.
The beam of the search light could be seen from quite a distance, with one user on Twitter saying it travelled from Glasgow before searching the area. It is currently unknown if the helicopter was under the care of Police Scotland.
