Nature is in crisis but Nature also has an incredible capacity to recover when allowed There is huge unrecognised potential to #RestoreNature across #PublicLand such as Bord Na Móna bogs We have seen this already with the return of Common Cranes & other species to 🇮🇪 recently
It has been heart-warming to hear from people with a deep personal connection to #HenHarrier. Mark Roper captured the ethereal beauty of "Ireland's skydancer" in a stunning poem 👇 Send your submission on the HHTRP before Feb 20th! See birdwatchireland.ie/henharrier #SaveTheSkydancer

Over the past few days we’ve released 24 white-tailed eagle chicks around the country. We work with our partner in Norway, local landowners and communities on this reintroduction programme. Watch behind the scenes as this years chicks get ready to take flight! #ProtectNature
Lovely to share the @LIFEonMachair story at @hometree__ summer school this weekend. Same issues: getting farming balance right, visitor mgmt & coastal protection, who’s responsible for which bit & how to get the balance right?

An astonishing number of #frogs at @DrumnaphReserve this morning, truly amazing to witness.
Since returning home with my new hobby of bird watching in tow, Kingfisher has been high on my list of birds to see! With a tip on location I was finally able to spot one! I know for most birders and twitchers this guy is common enough but I was very happy with this sighting !

No Cowslips for the #CowslipChallenge this week, but a few nice plants. Pseudofumaria alba (Pale Corydalis) in Dublin. Lamium album (White Deadnettle), Orchis mascula (Early Purple Orchid), and Viola riviniana (Common Dog Violet) from Galway. @wildflower_hour
Nice to see a male Osmia bicornis in the garden scoping dandelions Only the third time I’ve seen the species in Ireland, and the first for this year so far

Finally the sun came out and it's been three days of wildflowers here in Ireland. Early purple orchids are flourishing, as are Ramsons in huge quantities, seen here snuggling up with non-native American Skunk Cabbage #wildflowerhour
Because I just got called a crackpot and liar on this tremendously supportive app, here is some beautiful bogland to inspire you. The eerie, forlorn beauty of these places feels magical.
Thanks to @ULEnviroSoc for having me help with their Intervarsity Bioblitz today, especially with plant ID and recording! Small flowers of Lesser Stitchwort, ice displays of Slender Speedwell and Field Wood-rush. Highlight, new hectad record for Carex caryophyllea! @BSBIbotany

Lesser Celandine is still undisputed as the most commonly recorded wildflower in 2024, with 458 sightings already submitted through Ireland's Citizen Science Portal. Remember you can submit all of your sightings here: records.biodiversityireland.ie
One of the best coastal wildflower meadows I have ever seen is in East Cork. I have seen many species in this meadow, and many I couldn't identify, cos you know, I'm learning all the time. 1/7

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.
Pasqueflowers from Bourton downs this weekend.
First Holly Blue of the season for me. Orange-tailed Mining Bee appears to be the most abundant thus far, but plenty of Ashy Mining Bee too.
