White tailed eagle: parent feeding chick photo gallery
On our spring Discover Wildlife Weekend in May I took the group to Glengarrif in Co. Cork to see if we could catch a glimpse of the white-tailed eagle pair that were breeding in the area. We got a bit more than we bargained for -- first seeing an adult fly in to the nest with food from a vantage point on the mainland, with food, and later witnessing an action … [Read more...] about White tailed eagle: parent feeding chick photo gallery

Choughed to bits with West Cork wildlife
Wildlife is always unpredictable. That's a big part of the wildlife-watching appeal: you never quite know what any given outing will bring, even when you visit a familiar patch. I always tell guests on our Discover Wildlife Walks to expect the unexpected. Whether it's encountering a rare migrant, watching a cormorant catch and swallow an unfeasibly large mullet, or … [Read more...] about Choughed to bits with West Cork wildlife

I'd been afraid to look at the forecast all week. The weather is the bane of anyone organising an outdoor-based activity in Ireland, and the last few weeks had been dreadful. There was no real sense things were going to improve either... but with a Discover Wildlife Weekend planned I simply had to bite the bullet and check.

A wonderfully wild weekend
Like it or not... when you're watching wildlife in Ireland you're inevitably watching the weather. With our Discover Wildlife Weekend looming I'd spent the last week watching the weather forecasts with growing trepidation. Would the weather gremlins play ball? West Cork is a truly spectacular wildlife location, but so much depends on what the weather decides to do on the day. … [Read more...] about A wonderfully wild weekend
