Hi there,
I've set up this blog to primarily talk about and share sightings on "my patch" which is Ashbourne, Co Meath. Although I regularly visit all the usual spots like Swords, the Bull, Rogerstown, Kilcoole etc etc I wont be talking about or reporting on any of these sites as there's an abundance of great reporting and information already available on the web. The exception being if I find a "mega" (not really likely)!!
Instead I'll concentrate on County Meath, Ashbourne and it's immediate environs particularly, though by no means exclusively.
County Meath doesn't have a very long coast line and to be honest about both Dublin and Louth which neighbour Meath offer longer coastlines with better birding opportunities. Instead I'll be offering up a view from inside the county, the farmland, the hedgerows and fields.
So what can you expect, well plenty of BoP's, lots of them, and anything else a little less abundant..... I wont be posting about sparrows and finches (well maybe White-throated sparrow's or Rosefinch's that stray onto the patch).
Anyway, that's the what and the where so hopefully I'll keep thing interesting enough to entice you back.
Mick.
