Group still wants to hear about dolphin sightings

Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch is hoping to hear about any dolphin sightings whilst the Island lockdown remains in place.

The organisation says the restrictions mean it can't carry out its usual surveys, but wants to hear from any Peel residents who see the animals in the waters around the town whilst out on their daily exercise.

It comes after the group spotted a mother and calf pair out in the sea believed to have visited the Isle of Man a few months before, and they add any sightings they hear about will help them through this season.

However, its members say to only get photos or videos when on daily exercise, to maintain social distancing and not leave the house just to look for them.
