Volunteers have been sought for the effort which is to feature drones fitted with infrared cameras.

What has been described as the biggest search for the Loch Ness Monster since the early 1970s is due to be held later this month.

Drones fitted with infrared cameras are to be flown over the loch, and a hydrophone is to be used to detect unusual underwater sounds. Organisers said volunteers would also look for possible signs of a creature from safe vantage points on land.The Loch Ness Centre in Drumnadrochit and a volunteer research team called Loch Ness Exploration are organising the effort.They said it would be the biggest search for the monster since the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau studied the loch in 1972.People can pay for trips on the loch during this month's search.

Alan McKenna, of Loch Ness Exploration, said: "It's our hope to inspire a new generation of Loch Ness enthusiasts and by joining this large scale surface watch, you'll have a real opportunity to personally contribute towards this fascinating mystery that has captivated so many people from around the world."

Paul Nixon, general manager of the Loch Ness Centre, said the search would involve technology not previously used before."All viewing points are on land, and volunteers will be briefed by organisers each morning on suitable viewing points to ensure their safety."
