Those who were at the Bilberry Boreen History and Literature festival in 2022 will remember The Bella Coola played a phenomenal gig on the Saturday night. They have recorded and released a music video for Who, What, Where and it's amazeballs! Well done to all involved! 🥳💃🕺🎶🎵 Take a listen and share!
John Creedon would love it I'd say, maybe he'll play it RTÉ Radio 1 ?

The maternity roost box is under construction for the Lesser Horseshoe bat roof! Rowan is warming up the insulation or maybe it's the other way around 🤔😄
If anyone would like to donate towards this, the link is in my bio and I'd be so grateful 🙏🦇❤️
Big thanks to Dave for his work 🙏

Some invertebrates from along a short stretch of the meadow path. I know it might seem diverse here but there's definitely been a decline in numbers after the dreadful year last year and the general ongoing catastrophe 😢
