A paddle boarder has been rescued after drifting out to sea in the Scottish Highlands, sparking an emergency response.
The incident took place around 12.30pm today when coastguard crews were alerted to reports of a missing paddle boarder who had taken to the water from Reiss beach in the town of Wick earlier that morning.

A lifeboat sped to the scene, and she was taken to safety, where she was reunited with her family.
It is understood a medical assessment was carried out on the woman but it is unclear as to whether she sustained injuries as a
