At the Clare Branch Dawn Chorus outing to the National Park area of the Burren this morning, five male Cuckoo and one female Cuckoo were heard. Four Common Sandpiper, a pair of Yellowhammer, ten Whitethroat, three Blackcap and a Kestrel were spotted also. Most of the other common birds of the Burren were seen and heard during a leisurely stroll on a dry cloudy morning.(Susan O Donohue, Nuala and Tom Lynch et al)
