Eoin O'Faodhagain was watching Loch Ness via webcam when he spotted something rising and sinking in the water.

He said: 'I saw a shape rise up out of the water, then submerge, four times in the same spot, which I considered to be highly unusual' The footage was captured using a webcam at the Clansman Hotel maintained by Visit Inverness Loch Ness .

It's an unusually early time of year for the mythical monster to appear.

Native fish sturgeons can also weigh several hundred pounds and have ridged backs, which make them look almost reptilian. Some believe Nessie is a long-necked plesiosaur - like an elasmosaur - that survived somehow when all the other dinosaurs were wiped out. Others say the sightings are down to Scottish pines dying and flopping into the loch, before quickly becoming water-logged and sinking. Eventually, enough of these are gathered to propel the log upward as deep pressures begin altering its shape, giving the appearance of an animal coming up for air..
