A conservation expert from the United Kingdom has been singing the Isle of Man's praises over measures to encourage and protect birds.
Hugo Straker, of the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust, has been on the Island to advise the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry.
In particular, he has been concentrating on mitigating the environmental consequences of expanding the Cringle Quarry in the south of the Island.
But Mr Straker says the Isle of Man is already doing a lot to help red grouse and wading birds:
Drone pilots warned of exclusion zones during road racing
No self-driving car laws expected before 2027
Cannan: 'Too early to reveal any re-election plans'
Techstars Startup event to take place in July
