Sometimes an article cuts through the clamour of bad news to strike right at your heart. “A great silence is spreading over the natural world even as the sound of man is becoming deafening" theguardian.com/environment/20…
Submissions for the Offaly Biodiversity Action Plan 2025-2030 are still open. This is your chance to have your say on important Biodiversity issues in your area. For more information visit our website on the link below: offaly.ie/pre-draft-publ… @offalycoco @HeritageHubIRE
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.
Irish Cuckoo Update - Cuach Cores is still on his way to West Africa, but Torc is trailblazing again, being the first to cross the Sahara. He was first to leave breeding grounds and first to arrive in wintering grounds @NPWSIreland @_BTO @BirdWatchIE @_EURING @KerryBirdNews
Just the way it is
A decent gap in bad weather yesterday meant the team could get out and ring another Raven nest in an abandoned towerhouse. The biggest brood of the year so far with 4 chicks. At over 1kg each they are the biggest passerine in the world @_BTO @NPWSIreland @BirdWatchIE @_EURING
3pm on @RTERadio1 today - all about the Magpie. We were delighted to contribute and look forward to listening. They're a familiar species to everyone, but how much do you really know about them?

May have spoken too soon this news item has just been pulled from the @IrishTimes website without explanation and it doesn’t appear in today’s print edition. The plot thickens. Would be very helpful if Irish Times could issue a clarification as to what has just happened.

No breeding lapwing in the whole of County Cork! ⬇️ Would there be a landowner or two who fancied helping their return with a bit of wetland restoration?

Fair play to @Irishwildlife for taking this stand. A lot of work goes into getting a conviction so disappointing when judges don't apply appropriate sentences. Believe it or not crimes against wildlife are actual crimes! irishtimes.com/ireland/2024/0…
Someone has shot dead one of our few rare and endangered white-tailed eagles. She flew all over the midlands, north-west & west the past two years and was killed last Monday/Tuesday @NPWSIreland & @noonan_malcolm appeal to public to help find her killer m.independent.ie/irish-news/dev…

I visited Killeshin church with our @NationalMons team and Laois heritage officer Thomas Carolan to meet the local community who take great care of their local heritage. The stunning Romanesque doorway was animated under spring sunshine and showers.
My first swifts of the year seen today! Woohoo! Not seen any over Pontypridd yet but 2 over Porth #swifts #boysofthesummer #birds
Lapwing, once a familiar sight, birds breeding in spring sown arable and wetlands.

Epic sea crossing alert! 🌊 KP has reached Ireland but rather than following a land-based route, he left northern Spain and set off across the Bay of Biscay then continued his flight over the sea. 😮 We’re pleased to say he’s made it! 🙌 @NPWSIreland
Spent the day chasing the common starling around looking for the shot..... This one is not particular special but the colours on them are amazing!
I'm beyond excited to announce that my second book, 'The Magic of an Irish Rainforest: A Visual Journey', goes on sale this September. A photographic exploration and celebration of rainforests from Beara to north Antrim, it'll take the reader to other, exquisite, dimensions. 🌍
Exquisite day in Hintlesham Wood with kindred spirits from NE, hopefully securing some funding for wetting work @JimPullen9 @bikingecologist #SSSI #suffolkwoods Flora breathtaking - note the mysterious green hellebore...

@Ciaraioch It's brilliant, I'm not one for insulting dead fish but each to their own😉🤔 How did you miss out on @rickywhela90923 Secret life of Crows at Fenit?!! You'll have no luck for it, sure Susan O'Neill is grand an all but......so I was told by a Kilgarvan jackdaw
Lords and Ladies (Arum maculatum) looking elfish near this tillage field today close to BirdWatch Ireland HQ in Kilcoole Co Wicklow. I don’t know what’s growing in the field though 😬. Can arable folk assist?
Irish Cuckoo Update - too much for one post, so a thread. After a leading role Torc is lagging a bit behind with most of the UK birds either back home or in France. He is still in Spain to the west of Madrid where he has been since 22nd April @NPWSIreland @_BTO @KerryBirdNews 1/3
