Three whales have died after beaching in the Firth of Forth.

The pilot whales were found stranded on mud flats at Torryburn in Fife on Wednesday, a day after being spotted near the coastline.

The mammals had been refloated at high tide on Wednesday by a British Divers Marine Life Rescue team, assisted by coastguards and firefighters.

However, Kinghorn Coastguard confirmed on Thursday that despite their best efforts, the whales had died.
