Eilis Sheehy of LMFM recorded this hour long documentary over the summer of 2010 at Baltray and Kilcoole. This involved several visits to our project at Baltray and the documentary will feature some of the volunteers, and will compare the projects at Baltray and Kilcoole.
Tune in on Monday!
Cage Appeal.
If anyone in the Drogheda area has a cage that they no longer use, Maurice can put it to good use, he looks after injured raptors and needs some cages to house them, bird cages or animal cages will do the job. If you have a cage to give away, you can contact Maurice at 086 8696597.

Jim Moore, Divisional Manager with the NPWS visited the project site on Tuesday of this week. He met with Peter Phillips, Aine Walsh, Sandra and myself who are the team who organise the Little Tern Conservation Project. He was very interested in the project and discussed it with us at length. He was particularly impressed with the huge volunteer effort that is such an important part of the project and he felt that much praise is due to our trusty band of volunteers. We were delighted to meet Jim, it was thanks to the NPWS and their decision to fund us in 2007 that the project began at that time and they have continued to fund us since then.
