A fresh bird flu threat has led to a warning for Irish holidaymakers heading to the coast of Scotland 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 Stonheaven beach on Monday and a further 100 on Tuesday.
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.
