A Scottish accountant has captured hundreds of hours of footage of wildlife on a city centre river while recovering from knee replacement surgery.

Tom Kelly's remarkable recordings include otters and their cubs, kingfishers and herons in their natural habitat on Edinburgh's Water of Leith.

He began documenting the wildlife in January 2021, after doctors advised him to walk as much as possible to aid his rehabilitation.

The 60-year-old has since walked 5,000 miles and made a full recovery while gathering the film.
