whales2Two of the thirteen beached whales in Falcarragh have been brought back from the dead and refloated.
It was thought that all the remaining beached whales would have died last night and would be buried this morning.
But one local man and a group of friends went to Baliness beach in the early hours of this morning and helped refloat two of the animals. They say they were last seen swimming towards Magheraroarty.
