Published 1 month ago
Description
Two rare Antarctic seabirds have been spotted at a popular Ennis attraction.
Two South Polar Skuas were spotted at the Bridges of Ross in the past week.
It's the fourth ever sighting of the bird in Clare, with two recorded in 2024 and a further sighting noted earlier this year.
Clare ornithologist, John Murphy, says identifying them is both incredibly rare and challenging.
