Booterstown Bird Sanctuary - Amazing December
The only bad thing about the weather in thiiiis video is the wind but it doesn't affect the sound too much. Depends which way i turn. But really , if you were making a movie you could pull it off as a summers day. Maybe you cant hear me talking about the birds. 1000's use this as a takeoff for migration every year south to Africa.

Just twenty minute cycle from Dublin City Center is Booterstown. The patch of marsh here is a nature reserve, and homes many different types of birds.

Tripadvisor: Dublin Ireland East Wall to Cornelscourt.
Let me be your tripadvisor in this tour of Dublin city. Using an over the Shoulder Camera Rig to give a birds eye view. In this journey I travel from Sandymount in north Dublin city to Cornelscourt located in the southern suburbs.
See the landmarks along the route and see what regular city goers see on any given day. Dublin is an ancient city and one that is full of culture and life. Today's journey is on one of the busiest routes for people travelling in and out of the city to get to work. Especially for those in the southern suburbs and further south in Wexford.
I hope you enjoy the view. It is the first of hopefully many to come. Who knows, I may cover the whole world. You have to think big! thanks for watching and please LIKE and SHARE. Peace to you all.

Kingfisher River Movie 14-3-16
I watched a male Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) return with a female (#1) Kingfisher to it's regular nesting hole, then two days later spotting another female (#2) in the same spot making a new nesting hole no more then one metre from the other females (#1) nesting hole with the male helping it, with the other female (#1) watching on.
I've heard of males breeding with 2 females in the same season, but not nesting so close.
Stating this, sometimes when the first female appears on scene, the second female flies away, chased after by the male.
I wonder will the first female put up with this ??? Watch This Space !!!
Forgive the poor quality, Hand held recording, a very misty morning it was. with lots of editing (especially the nest hole building) from a two hour period, down to five minutes

Alcedo atthis
Cruidín
Status: Resident on Irish streams, rivers and canals.
Conservation Concern: Amber-listed in Ireland. BirdLife International has evaluated the European population as depleted, due to a moderate historical decline.
Identification: Very distinctive when seen well with its brightly coloured plumage. The underparts are a bright orange-red, while the wings and back of the head are dark blue. The back, rump and tail are a bright, almost electric blue and usually draw attention to a flying bird. Despite these bright colours, can be easily overlooked perched motionless on a branch beside a stream or river on the look-out for fish. During the breeding season, females have a small red patch at the base of the bill, which is not shown by adult males.
Similar Species: None in Ireland
Call: A shill whistled “chee-kee”, frequently repeated. It is usually one first signs that a Kingfisher is present along a stream or river.
Diet: Various species of small fish (Stickleback, Minnow, and Chub) and larger aquatic insects caught by plunge-diving from a perch or while hovering.
Breeding: Kingfishers breed in tunnels dug in vertical banks along streams and rivers.
Wintering: A very sedentary species, Kingfishers rarely move from their territories. However, some may move to lakes and coasts during extended spells of poor weather.
Where to See: Widespread in Ireland. Booterstown Marsh in County Dublin is a reliable site to see this species.
