Galloway Red Kite trail
From BBC News:
A new report has claimed visitors to a wildlife project in south west Scotland have put at least £21m into the local economy in the past six years.
The Galloway Kite Trail was created by a partnership led by RSPB Scotland.
It has also been estimated that the project has supported about 13 full-time jobs each year since it started.

Yes saw that news item yesterday, I would imagine that places like Gigrin farm down in Wales has similar results.

It's a great result - it gives another tack to use when trying to convince people of the worthiness of wildlife protection.
