After extinction in the early 19th century the Red Kite soars again in Wicklow. Re-introduced in 2007 these magnificent creatures are again flourishing. Avoca, County Wicklow. ⁦BirdWatch Ireland

Lapwing can be seen in Ireland year-round but the greatest numbers occur between Sept. & April. Like many ground-nesting species, the Lapwing has undergone severe declines in breeding numbers. It now red-listed on the Birds of Conservation Concern in Ireland list. #wwd2024

“We learned that all is not well, but there is hope when support for farmers and community is there. People are key, Continuity is key, Resources are key”

Just got word from our wardens at Kilcoole that we now have >204 active Little Tern nests, matching last year's peak (which wasn't hit until June 2023). It's been a very early start to nesting and it'll be a busy few months trying to keep them all safe! National Parks and Wildlife Service BirdWatch Ireland

Anyone visiting #RHSChelsea? Remember to look out for bat friendly features in the #gardens. This drawing from the latest issue of Bat News magazine highlights some of the things to look out for. Bat friendly gardens can play an important role in helping wildlife.

Sean is an inspiration and a true champion for bird life and the wider environment. We are both extremely grateful and thrilled that he has chosen to donate 25% of the proceeds from his new album, Wild Silence, to BirdWatch Ireland. Thank you Irish Wildlife Sounds (Seán Ronayne) for all of your support!

(AL) The Irish public really cares about marine protection, biodiversity and other environmental matters. Chairman of Birdwatch Sligo branch Michael Bell feels it's important for elected representatives to take note. Listen back here 👇 Fair Seas #WorldOceanMonth
