The Pembs blog has details of the stranding of hundreds of fledgling manxies at Newgale sands.
If manxies are found alive on our coast please be aware that there is a scheme afoot to feed them up and using the good offices of Stena Line put them back in the feeding flocks on the Irish side. Cliff Benson would be the link for anyone needing to help any stranded birds after you've fed them some sardines!
The gales are bringing exciting birds within reach but sadly there's always another side to the story.
