Maidenhair Fern near Lisdoonvarna, growing on the wall of a gorge on shale/siltstone bedrock. Possibly the 1st record in the locality since the mid-1800's. Interesting that aforementioned record has it growing on 'the coal measures', an antiquated term for the shale geology

Incredible find here by Donncha. The potential of these small west Clare woodlands is huge, and almost entirely undocumented.
New site for Killarney Fern in North Clare! I was delighted to find a significant population growing on a rockface along a wooded stream. Three separate colonies recorded. I estimate over 140 fronds in total 🪴

A Woodwasp, stunning creature. I’d not heard of one & so am grateful to @Jessica_Ham92 for the post. There’s lots to learn about our biodiversity in ireland and beyond and we need to do all we can to assist w/research and conservation, before it’s too late.

Looking for some good news? This is the most extraordinary wildlife sighting - right whales have not been seen off Ireland in more than 100 years!
Breaking news! Sighting reports sent to IWDG July 15th in Donegal Bay confirm exceptionally rare record of a North Atlantic Right whale for the North East Atlantic, and a 1st for the IWDG with supporting photo evidence. Full story 👉 iwdg.ie/1st-irish-record-of-… #MPAs #DonegalBay

Many fish stocks are depleted or under pressure with devastating knock-on effects for economies & wildlife. However, Irish waters are home to many important spawning grounds 🐟🐠 Examples of how Marine Protected Areas can benefit fishing communities ↙️ fairseas.ie/2023/10/04/10-be…

Crexcellent news this morning as 2023 survey data shows a 35% increase in critically endangered corncrakes in Ireland over the past five years. 218 breeding territories were recorded this year - that's up 10% on last year, and for the first time in a decade it exceeds 200 sites.
