youtu.be/ePvDLeyxl4U?t=… A while back I had the priviledge to meet, and work with, probably my biggest hero - Ardal O Hanlon / Father Dougal. Anytime I'm under big pressure some Father Ted; with a cup of tea or glass of wine always fixes things😃 This is the footage from BBC

The sun rising over Rockabill this morning from Skerries

Through the office window, robin collecting moss for nest building. It's been super efficient-as the nest is less than 3 metres away, in the briars. In Irish folklore; when Jesus was on the cross, a robin began to pluck the thorns from his head-and blood splashed onto it's chest

One Of My Favourite Things To See Every Spring

Over the years I've spent a lot of time at holy wells, for work purposes 😅 This, last week, was the coolest one I've even come across. St Colmcille's At high tide, and for a large part of each day, this well is covered by the sea. Then at low tide it becomes exposed...

It's been a year for reunions. Spent the last couple of days doing mountain skills work with an old colleague I haven't worked with for close on 20 years 🙂 Mountaineering IRL morrisontours

While you were sleeping.,. Zzz

When you come across a boghole fenced off like this in the Irish mountains, you know it's a real man-eater/cow-eater. I always have an urge to run across it really fast, and see can I avoid falling in!

Coming up this May Bank Holiday, with places available, is a Mountain Skills 1, two-day beginner friendly course. Mostly outdoor on the hills, this weekend covers the map reading, navigation and safety skills to be self sufficient on the Irish mountains, and get off trail.

Down Killarney way ..💙🔔 #killarney #ireland #bluebells

Nothing like a kelly kettle bubbling away, in the woods, on a bushcraft course. About to make larch tip tea...

A last minute guided sea kayak trip has come available for this afternoon at 3pm in Glengarriff Bay. Beginner friendly. Text 086 8604563 to book

Five small porpoise joined us yesterday evening, feeding and jumping. Such a nice way to start the summer season 🙂 Typically got very little jumping footage, but nice jump right at end of this video...

Birch Bark, such a simple and effective tinder. Dropped some sparks into this from a fire striker, and watch how well it burns. The black smoke is natural oil burning. It's all about burn time-the longer your tinder burns for, the more chance your kindling and fire takes light.
