Three stranded dolphins were saved in a successful rescue mission by residents on Orkney.

The mammals washed up on the sand in the Bay of Tuquoy, near Westray on Friday evening.

The alarm was raised at 5.30pm but due to the rural location British Divers Marine Life Rescue medics were some time away.

A frantic rescue operation was launched by a team of locals, who were given instructions by the charity to maintain the dolphins' conditions until they arrived.
