September Calendar

The month for preparation for harvesting, hibernating and migrating

Beach Combing on Derrymore Stand

Our own Brigid Vinnell  (branch PRO) led this event on Derrymore strand, Tralee bay. The event was planned to coincide with an extremely low spring tide and the weather, which started cloudy, only improved over the course of the event.

Dawn Chorus Walk @ Tralee Wetlands Centre

Group Shot

On the morning of the 27th of July some branch members met in the car park of the Wetlands centre and circumnavigated the site under the guidance of Ed Carthy (Kerry Birding Group). The Wetlands site contains a number of different habitats such as reed beds, woodlands, open grassland and ponds, lakes and water ways. At each habitat Ed advised on the birds we were hearing and his keen eye was able to identify the various species we saw with just a split second glimpse.

Autumn / Winter Events

We've just finished finalising our programme of events of the coming Autumn / Winter season and what an exciting programme it is!

You'll find the events listed in our Upcoming Events calendar on this page and prior to each event we will be reminding people via our Newsletter so make you have subscribed (see the sign up form on this page).

Remember for outdoor events to dress appropriately and don't forget to bring your camera and binoculars - you never know what you might see.

Looking forward to seeing you there

Getting Started

We're just getting started on Blogger so please bare with us. It shouldn't take us too long though.

We intend using this blog to promote our upcoming events and also to post reviews and pictures of these events when they're over. We will also post details of projects and campaigns that the Kerry branch are involved in.
