The crew of the Eyemouth RNLI lifeboat have posted a picture of their boat being "escorted" by dolphins.

They were returning from a shout on Friday, after being tasked at 19:20 to assist a passenger vessel.

Returning to harbour with a line attaching the two boats, they were surrounded by dolphins.

The incident ended with the passenger vessel safely alongside and the lifeboat was stood down 40 minutes after the call.
