  • Ring of Kerry Itinerary
    Ring of Kerry Itinerary THE RING OF KERRY DRIVE We've driven the Ring of Kerry a few times now and it never gets old. I may not say that in a few years when every single person who visits us in Ireland wants to do a Ring of Kerry road trip but for now, let's say visiting the Ring of Kerry is an Irish rite of passage. From Donegal, it is quite a drive and it takes us around 6 hours but we decided upon a few other stops on our road trip. We drive right through Sligo which is one of Ireland's most underappreciated counties and it is spectacular. From Yeats grave to the beautiful surfing beaches Sligo is sensational. From Sligo, we headed straight to Galway City where we stayed a couple of days to enjoy the craic and the crowds. Then from Galway, we went onto to Tralee which is where we began our Ring of Kerry epic adventure. We stopped in Tralee for some epic fish and chips at Quinlan's Seafood Bar absolutely bloody spectacular food so fresh it was practically still flapping. At Quinlan's, we also heard for the very first time a true Kerry accent which is quite a thick Irish one. The slang used in Kerry is also different than the rest of Ireland so if someone calls you a "lad" and your female that's the Kerry way. By the way, the blue highlighted text is a link so you can click on it and it will open an article on that area.

  • Irish Seabird Islands Oscar J
    Irish seabird islands Oscar J. Merne lthough Ireland is not large in area, the mainland and associated islands Ahave a coastline of over 4,000 km. There are just over 1,000 islands of a significant size (i.e. large enough to appear on the standard 1:126,720 Ordnance Survey maps in use in Ireland) and the majority have some breeding seabirds on them, although only about 20 could be regarded as being of great significance in terms of absolute numbers of seabirds and species-diversity. There are no generally accepted criteria for assessing the importance of sites for breeding seabirds, but I have selected ten islands or groups of islands for special consideration (see pages 81-84). A total of 21 species of seabirds breeds regularly in Ireland and the numbers of each are reasonably well known, mainly as a result of the 1969-70 'Operation Seafarer' census (Cramp et al. 1974). The main omission from this census was the inland breeding populations of some gulls and terns, several of which are considerable. In addition, certain important islands, particularly off the Mayo coast, were not visited during the census period, due to inaccessibility in bad weather. The counts for some species were probably quite accurate, but, as elsewhere, problems were encountered with Manx Shearwaters and Storm Petrels because of their nocturnal habits, and with the auks because of the difficulties of interpretation of counts of birds in attendance at colonies. Nevertheless, at Continued.... 80 [Brit. Birds 73:80-85, February 1980] Irish seabird islands 81 least the general order of abundance of each species is known and it is clear that several species occur in Ireland in numbers which are of international significance.
