Three Little Egrets were seen with cattle in a field on the eastern side of Foynes. A Red Admiral butterfly was also seen at Foynes today (TT).
A Blackcap was in song at Curraghchase, presumably a wintering bird enticed by the very mild weather, as breeding males normally don’t arrive on their territories until the first week of April. A Buzzard was also seen there(TT).
