Natural bends were added to the beck to create a habitat for bird species, experts said.
A stream which was straightened in the 18th Century to create a canal has been "re-wiggled" to make it more attractive for birds and other wildlife to live.
Experts believe the work will create the ideal habitat for snipe and other bird species including curlew, black grouse, lapwing and redshank.The beck flows through part of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Beauty, and Geltsdale which is a designated conservation and protected area.

Rise of the natural red pigment ‘prodigiosin’ as an immunomodulator in cancer - Cancer Cell InternationalCancer is a heterogeneous disease with multifaceted drug resistance mechanisms (e.g., tumour microenvironment [TME], tumour heterogeneity, and immune evasion). Natural products are interesting repository of bioactive molecules, especially those with anticancer activities. Prodigiosin, a red pigment produced by Serratia marcescens, possesses inherent anticancer characteristics, showing interesting antitumour activities in different cancers (e.g., breast, gastric) with low or without harmful effects on normal cells. The present review discusses the potential role of prodigiosin in modulating and reprogramming the metabolism of the various immune cells in the TME, such as T and B lymphocytes, tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs), natural killer (NK) cells, and tumour-associated dendritic cells (TADCs), and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) which in turn might introduce as an immunomodulator in cancer therapy.
