Lovely day #AttenboroughWalk

We walked by a dry river that apparently never runs in the summer, up a cliff face in old-growth European larch forest. There were lots of amazing things on our walk but the highlight was this nest in the photo with tiny starling chicks.

Other lovely moments: A baby robin joined the picnic. Bluebells galore. And there were lots of mayflies and midges. Even a solitary tick came to say hi to one of the children (there are undoubtedly a few more we haven't met yet).

Today marks the 100th birthday of Sir David Frederick #Attenborough.

Some had the idea to celebrate this by doing an #attenboroughwalk, so I also went on one in a nearby park.

So for today's #AttenboroughWalk we decided to go to Troll Woods in Leitrim. https://leitrimtourism.com/walks-and-trails/forest-walks/cartron-troll-wood/

We're bringing a picnic dinner and meeting some friends. Sixteen of us will be walking together. We're bringing magnifying glasses, books on plants, birds and insects, a thermal camera and some other toys. There'll be a few children so we'll see if they want to make a short documentary film.

Happy birthday David!

@ephemeral This is an excellent idea. Can I suggest #AttenboroughWalk?
