It took me nearly a week to pin down these spotless starlings in the Algarve. Very wary for some reason.
🧵(4/4) This situation highlights yet another threat posed to our already vulnerable seabird populations. BirdWatch Ireland will continue to call for a formal national oiled wildlife response plan, which is something we & fellow OWRN members have been calling for over many years.
(AL) 🧵(1/4) Oiled seabirds, including Guillemots, are being reported along the #Wicklow and #Wexford coastline. The source of this oil has yet to be established but we understand that the @IrishCoastGuard is investigating this at present.
Please watch out for oiled birds or oil along Wicklow and Wexford coastline and report to the authorities stated in the thread:

A poignant vigil for Greta Price-Martin, the 22 year old Co Louth IADT student and cyclist who was killed last week. Family, friends and residents in Dun Laoghaire were told by her father, Breffni: “She should have been safe here.” Her mother Vanessa said: “Keep cycling.”

The hill burning begins. Sad. Lots of birds like Skylark, Meadow Pipit nesting on ground in these habs now. Other animals like Leverets & frogs also impacted. Carbon released. Air qual impacted. Hopefully @agriculture_ie @NPWSIreland @noonan_malcolm @McConalogue follow up ASAP.

Pretty inspiring stuff in this podcast, all about the work being done in Finland to enhance wildfowl numbers. We're several steps behind this in Ireland at the moment but hopefully something that can be built towards sooner rather than later. No time to waste!

Sleeping Sandmartins. Everyone needs rest, food, somewhere safe to call home, a wash and a cuddle 😍
After a busy weekend nest building, our Sand Martins had a lie in this am. They were in the nest chamber snoozing and preening all morning. They are away now, but should return later. We also had a visitor to no 21 this am, 1st time in 2 weeks! 🤞 for more action there too.
