Join me over on Bluesky. bsky.app/profile/seanro… It’s like Twitter but it’s much friendlier. I’m slowly winding down Twitter although I’ll have to maintain it for a little while yet.
Lough Ree is the most important site in Ireland for breeding waterbirds - that's why @NPWSIreland is buying Clawinch Island, a 50 acre haven for vulnerable ground-nesting birds like Curlew, Lapwing and Snipe. It will now be managed entirely for nature 🪶 gov.ie/en/press-relea…
****THIS WEEKEND**** WADER WATCH with the Breeding Waders EIP. Please share to any outdoor enthusiasts or birdwatchers you may know. Why not grab a flask and a friend and joins us on the 2nd and 3rd of November in taking part in Wader Quests world watch, its an easy and fun process there is no need to register (unless you want to) simply just go out have fun and find some waders and let us know what you see. If you find one of our ringed curlews you win one of our fabulous project caps. chat us at [email protected] or on: 086 8816925 For more info please check out: waderquest.net/events/wader-c… breedingwaders.ie
Back In July, with assistance from the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT), we fitted GPS tags to a sample of our Headstarted Curlew, prior to releasing them back into the wild. Below is an example of some of the data we have been able to capture. The bird in the photo is fitted with one of these GPS tracking tags, it also has a blue ring on its right leg and a yellow ring, displaying letters, on its left leg. After spending time around the area it was released, this bird has recently joined a flock of Curlew and migrated around 100km to the west coast!!!. This tracking technique, with Headstarted Curlew, has never been used in Ireland before and will play a vital role in our efforts to save these birds from extinction as a breeding species in Ireland. Knowledge is the Key. If you see Curlew with leg rings, please get in touch with us at [email protected] @DeptHousingIRL @agriculture_ie @noonan_malcolm @pippa_hackett @McConalogue
A pair of #Dunlin have raised 2 young this summer at the Valley/Sandybanks #AchillIsland - this seriously threatened Irish nesting bird had not been recorded breeding locally since 1995 - success has been achieved thanks to the @LIFEonMachair project & support of local community
This is insanity!!! Just found a third BAROLO SHEARWATER!!! Picked it up head on, middle of the bay, which gave every observer present amble time to pick it up. Phenomenal prolonged views. @BirdGuides
Scruffy time of year! Lots of #waders are now in autumn moult, a process that can take three months. More here in three #WaderTales blogs: 1⃣ Grey Plover wadertales.wordpress.com/2017/09/18/the… 2⃣ Lapwing wadertales.wordpress.com/2016/07/27/lap… 3⃣ Golden Plover wadertales.wordpress.com/2018/10/23/sta… #ornithology

And so the #GrasslandsTrail was 'locally launched' as part of the @BurrenbeoTrust #BurrenInBloom festival this Monday, w a large group for a walk & talk at #SlieveCarran, in @BurrenNP Great folk, Qs, plants & scenery! @PollinatorPlan @phoebeob1 @NPWSIreland @Notice_Nature
(AL) If you discover an oiled bird, we URGE you to follow the advice below. Oiled birds require specialist care and, while well-intentioned, any attempts to catch and/ or clean them might be more harmful than helpful.
Male Bufflehead, Co. Westmeath
We are urging people to make a submission to the draft #HenHarrier Threat Response Plan public consultation which includes our 3 key asks for the plan. Help us to #SaveTheSkydancer. Tell the government why you care about the Hen Harrier. See birdwatchireland.ie/henharrier for more.
The unmistakable hustle and bustle of an Irish Gannet colony in summer. Our largest seabird and one of the most beautiful, too, with their wonderful lemon-yellow crowns and powder-blue eye-rings. Gannets are specialist fish eaters and can dive from heights of up to 40 metres!
Great news #ForNature today as Ireland’s National Biodiversity Action Plan is published! #NBAP #Biodplan24 #RestoreNature #ActionsForNature
Let’s make Ireland wilder! Today we launch #ActionsforNature, Ireland’s fourth National Biodiversity Action Plan. Containing 194 actions, it’s the first #NBAP to be underpinned by both legislation AND serious funding. 🌿🦉👇 🔗 gov.ie/en/press-relea…
Thank you @CCBOIE for an incredible week, learning from the legends @DickCoombes and @Steveccbo. Highlights include Western Bonelli's Warbler, Wryneck, Pied Flycatcher, Hoopoe, and Cory's Shearwater.
