Scotland's decision day has arrived, with voters north of the border going to the polls today to determine if the country should remain part of the United Kingdom or not.
Scottish support for remaining in the UK is at 52%, according to the latest YouGov poll for The Times and The Sun.
Of the Scots surveyed, 48% said they supported Scotland becoming an independent country.
YouGov said the poll showed men were much more supportive of independence while most women broadly supported staying in the UK.
The polling company questioned 3,237 voters between 15 and 17 September.
One story dominates Thursday's front pages with some newspapers printing emotive pleas to voters to keep the United Kingdom as one.
In Edinburgh tonight you can hear it and feel it. The buzz, the banter of the day and the thrilling sense something big is coming tomorrow.
There is nervousness, anxiety and on the streets of Edinburgh fuelled by an atmosphere unlike anything seen before in recent UK politics.
