Company helps trust expand nature reserve

The Manx Wildlife Trust says it's expanding one of its largest nature reserves thanks to funding from an Island finance firm.

The trust says it's bought 43 acres of moorland and bog at the Dalby Mountain Nature Reserve, adding to the 69 acres it bought in 1995.

Money for the purchase came from asset management firm Resilience.

MWT says it means the reserve - which is home to mosses, owls, cuckoos and hen harriers - is now its second-largest reserve on the Island.
