Delighted to see this video. I had the opportunity to go out and see one of these bat roosts being constructed. Great support and goodwill from everyone involved. Fingers crossed the horseshoe bat population numbers increase. 🦇🦇🦇

Interesting article that shows clearly the importance of both understanding the local landscape and thinking about the whole catchment when dealing with nitrogen and its impacts on water quality, biodiversity and the climate: teagasc.ie/news--events/d…

Excessive algal growth in the lower Dalligan River, Ballyvoyle Cove, #Waterford today. #ClimateChange predictions mean that our rivers will have lower volumes of warmer water in summer dry spells so ability of rivers to dilute and assimilate pollutants will be reduced.⚠️

Congratulations to everyone involved. This looks amazing.
