*destruction! 🤦🏻‍♀️

This is outrageous, what will the consequences be for these criminals? Ireland forested areas are one of the lowest in Europe and yet this distraction of trees and wildlife continues.😔

Superb 3hrs that flew by in the blink of an eye with @seanronayne.bsky.social at #thelarkdublin tonight.
An evening of laughter, tears, joy, awe & hope.
Sean's passion is infectious, his delivery charming & his message a stark warning for the challenges ahead for Irelands birds.

What an incredible evening spent listening to @seanronayne.bsky.social at The Lark in Balbriggan. He spoke so engagingly and movingly about all aspects of bird life & general wildlife in Ireland. Stark+quite depressing statistics were presented alongside ever present hope and optimism. GRMA Seán 🦉

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day?

Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

A small fire at the front of the bookshop was started last night after rubbish bags that were awaiting collection were set on fire. The guards don’t have reason at this time to believe it was a targeted attack. Thankfully the damage was limited and everyone is safe. We are open for business as usual

Any vintage stereo lovers out there in the #spéirgorm world? I'm trying to find a home for a 1960s Murphy stereogram, preference is to donate it to a non-profit org with an interest in restoring or preserving them. Electronics need some work but it's in great nick cosmetically. Reposts appreciated

Jen, we were honestly smiling all day long. It was just amazing, Smock Alley was stunning! Churchy vibes but we had a beautiful humanist ceremony. A stroll to the Foggy Dew for de pints and then Fallon & Byrne for the reception. Bliss x ✨️
