Nature Scot, which manages the reserve, said: “Sadly, we can confirm that a dead whale has been found on the sand banks at Loch Fleet. The discovery comes about two weeks after a minke whale washed up on a beach in North Berwick, which saw workers spend hours removing the the nine-tonne mammal. On Thursday, contractors were hoping they can remove the carcass of a 55ft fin whale which washed up in Bridlington, East Yorkshire, earlier this week and died on Tuesday.
