This display in the Natural History Gallery highlights Manx BirdLife's plans to develop the Point of Ayre National Reserve, where the frieze will eventually be permanently mounted. The frieze was kindly donated to Manx Birdlife by The Nunnery in Douglas.

The frieze can be viewed in the Natural History section of the Manx Museum in Douglas, open daily from 9.30am to 4.30pm, until 3rd January 2023.
