Good morning. I'm Ayshah. Here with your Monday headlines. Coming up...

Waiters take to the streets for an extraordinary race. And Tom Daley

plunges into action at the Diving World Series. This is Newsround.

First this morning to a story involving a shipwreck, a rat

invasion and one of our favourite sea birds. Puffins. In a tiny island

off the coast of West Wales, they've come up with some unusual ways to

trick and bring the sea birds back to the shore. We sent Nel to find

out more. This is Ramsey Island. One of the

tiny islands off the Pembrokeshire coast. It's got some of the most

beautiful coastal scenery in Wales. And it is a brilliant place to spot

some sea birds off the top of those cliffs. One sea bird that is hard to

find here right now is the puffin. That wasn't always the story. Up

until the late 1800s, thousands of puffins lived and bred happily on

the island. But all that stopped when the rats arrived.

It all started with a shipwreck. The rats on-board abandoned ship.

Puffins live in burrows, which may it easy for the rats to sneak into

eat their eggs. So the puffins left. Now the rats have all gone. But how

do you get the puffins back? Well, for the last four years,

conservation groups have been working on it. And they've got some

pretty interesting ideas. With these fake puffins, made of plastic. The

idea was that birds on the water would see these, think there is a

busy puffin colony up there, "I'm going up". Unfortunately, that

didn't work. We came across some colleagues in Northern Ireland who

had speaker systems. Puffins that are out there on the water will

hopefully hear it and come ashore. Why is it important to get puffins

back on Ramsey Island? Well, they always used to be here. So it would

be good to get them back. They are not doing that well in the rest of

the UK. So it's important to have another site where puffins can breed

successfully. So far today, these are the only puffins that I've seen.

However, there is hope. A few have been spotted on those clips behind

me. But there is no quick fix. And it will take a few years before we

see a fully fledged puffin population on Ramsey Island.

Thanks, Nel. Manchester City are back in the title race after beating

Crystal Palace 2-0 yesterday. The Blues are now in the driving seat

following Liverpool's 2-0 defeat by Chelsea. Edin Dzeko's header put

City into an early lead before Yaya Toure curled a second from 15 yards.

Third-placed City have a game in hand over both Liverpool and

second-placed Chelsea and a better goal difference.

You might think these pictures are right out of a fairy tale. Well,

they're actually part of a sand sculpture festival at

Weston-super-Mare. The theme is exactly that. BBC weather expert,

Carol Kirkwood, is there this morning.

I'm in Weston-super-Mare at the Sand Sculpture Festival. And with me is

the coordinator and a sculptor herself, Nicola Woods. There are

some amazing things here. Tell us a bit about this one. This is the

Alice in Wonderland, mad Hatter's tea party, someone coming from

Holland to make this in eight days. In need some repairs, but is

otherwise great. Eight days is incredible. How do you do it? The

secret is in preparation, we compound the sand, to make it

tight, then work on detail as we go. How do they cope with the weather?

They are surprisingly robust, but we do get some surface damage, and we

have sculptors on-site the time. We have some high ones, including this

one, tell us about this one. It is around eight metres high, although

we lost about one metre of the top, it is related to the Grimm brothers

be details, all in there for the kids to find. Those look great. And

finally, hundreds of waiters and waitresses from all over Argentina

have taken part in a race which involved carrying a tray full of

drinks. The event has been held in cities around the world for over

half a century. But it is the first time it's taken place in the

Argentinian capital. That's all from me. Ricky's back this afternoon

right here
