The fox looks very like a dog, this is because theyT belong to the Canidae Family, the same family as the dog. They have dog-like features but are typically smaller and thinner than the average dog. Foxes can be found in most parts of the world. In Ireland they are very common and widespread and can be found both in the country and in the city. In the countryside, they like to live near forests or in scrub or tall vegetation . In towns and cities they make homes in large gardens or derelict properties. They are usually nocturnal animals, preferring to venture out at night under the cover of darkness to search for food. It is still possible however to see foxes out and about during the day. Foxes are known to be sly and cunning. This has given rise to the phrase “as sly as a fox”! FACT FILE Length: 95-139 cm Colour: Reddish-brown, with white Food for Foxes underparts.

Many would consider it to be typically Irish but it was only introduced into Ireland in the mid-19th century, having originated in Chile and Argentina in South America. Though it is an alien species here, it is not considered to be an invasive species. In full bloom, Fuchsia’s crimson flowers provide beautiful colour in the hedgerows from July to October. A deciduous shrub, it loses its leaves in winter and comes very twiggy. However, once spring arrives, it starts to grow again and quickly comes into leaf.

Available from http://www.dispar.org/reference.php?id=1 [Accessed November 24, 2014]. The Irish Mountain Ringlet Peter Eeles Abstract: The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish. This article examines available literature to date and includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance. [This is an update to the article written in February 2014]. The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish. The Irish Mountain Ringlet is truly the stuff of legend and many articles have been written over the years, including the excellent summary by Chalmers-Hunt (1982). The purpose of this article is to examine all relevant literature and, in particular, the various points of view that have been expressed over the years. This article also includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance and some of the sites mentioned in conjunction with these specimens are shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 - Key Sites The Birchall Mountain Ringlet (1854) The first reported occurrence of Mountain Ringlet in Ireland was provided by Edwin Birchall (Birchall, 1865) where,

  • About the Walks
    WALKING IN FERMANAGH About the Walks The walks have been graded into four categories Easy Short walks generally fairly level going on well surfaced routes. Moderate Longer walks with some gradients and generally on well surfaced routes. Moderate/Difficult Some off road walking. Good footwear recommended. Difficult This only applies to Walk 20, a long walk only suitable for more experienced walkers correctly equipped. For those looking for a longer walk it is possible to combine some walks. These are numbers 10 and 11, 12 and 13, 18 and 20, and 24 and 25. Disclaimer Note: The maps used in this guide are taken from the original publication, published in 2000. Use of these maps is at your own risk. Bear in mind that the countryside is continually changing. This is especially true of forest areas, mainly due to the clearfelling programme. In the forests some of the footpaths may also change, either upgraded as funds become available or re-routed to overcome upkeep problems and reduce costs. These routes are not waymarked but should be by the summer of 2007. Metal barriers may well be repositioned or even removed. A new edition of the book, ‘25 Walks in Fermanagh’ will be coming out in the near future. please follow the principles of Leave No Trace Plan ahead and prepare Travel and camp on durable surfaces Dispose of waste properly Leave what you find Minimise campfire impacts Respect Wildlife Be considerate of other visitors WALKING IN FERMANAGH Useful Information This walking guide was commissioned by Fermanagh District Council who own the copyright of the text, maps, and associated photographs.

  • CUILCAGH in 2017, Cuilcagh Mountain Became the Focus of Media Attention Due to Traffic Congestion and Parking Problems
    UPLAND MANAGEMENT MUCH TO BE LEARNED FROM EXPERIENCE AT CUILCAGH In 2017, Cuilcagh Mountain became the focus of media attention due to traffic congestion and parking problems. This was the outcome of a long series of management decisions which, often with unintended consequences, have progressively changed the mountain. This article provides the background to this and highlights some of the issues that can arise when mountains experience an upsurge in popularity. Helen Lawless reports. uilcagh Mountain (665m) is the highest point in counties Fermanagh and Cavan, rising above an extensive swath of blanket bog that is arguably the wildest Clandscape in Northern Ireland. During the winter of 2014/2015, a wooden boardwalk was constructed on the mountain to protect the blanket bog from the impact of walkers. The boardwalk was within Cuilcagh Mountain Park, which is part of the Marble Arch Caves UNESCO Global Geopark and managed directly by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council. The situation on Cuilcagh has a complex back-history. In the early 1990s, the blanket bog on the northern side of Cuilcagh was degraded by mechanised peat-cutting. Funding for blanket bog Mountaineering Ireland President Paul Kellagher pointing out litter alongside the Cuilcagh boardwalk to local restoration was secured under the EU LIFE journalist Rodney Edwards.
