Scots man captures incredible killer whale footage in 'once in a lifetime' moment

There are some rare and magical sites in Scotland we often come across whether it's on sea or land - and one Scot has shared incredible pictures and footage getting up close with a killer whale.

While working at Holm Pier in the village of St Mary's on the Mainland of Orkney on Tuesday morning, Graham Campbell shared the close-up video of the orca, describing it as a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity".

The Pier Master at the Orkney Marine Services, who was born and raised in Orkney, has seen killer whales many times, however he has never seen the animals this close up, reports the Daily Record.
