  9. The Swan Whisperer of Galway

    If you’ve ever wandered down to the Claddagh in Galway, you’ll know the swans are less “graceful wild creatures” and more “assertive locals who know exactly when the bread’s coming out.”

    That’s what happened on this day in 2005 when we visited and saw a young woman feeding those swans. Other birds wanted crumbs of bread too! Now we know that bread is not an ideal food for birds. Green vegetables are better for them.

  13. Look before you leap

    The famous diving area in Salthill, Galway, in 2011. This may have been the last time I was in Salthill. We drove through the city in 2018 on the way to Connemara, but I think it’s overdue a visit.

  14. While it was great that the people powered campaign by residents in Mervue to prevent the loss of the bus stop was won, the latest BusConnects update has planned to remove the 401 from entering Mervue and instead send the 405 through the narrow, unsuitable streets.
