Three young dolphins trapped in shallow water in Northbay on Barra were rescued by a group of kayakers from Clearwater Paddling.

 

One was completely tangled up in seaweed and risked being drowned unless it got into open water.

 

Chris Denehy, of Barra-based Clearwater Paddling freed the animal, later posting the video online.

 

Mr Denehy said:  "One of the dolphins was completely trapped in seaweed and shallow water.

 

"After a successful rescue the dolphin joined the other two for a fine display of thanks."
