More than 40 firefighters have been called to battle three major grass fires.

The flames could be seen for miles as firefighters tackled the blaze.

"We had ten firefighters at Tullos Hill and 24 at Kincorth.

"We had nine on Links Road near the golf course.

"There is still no word of what caused any of them."
