Irish Birds
AUTUMN HN105
Thursdays
Ireland is rich in birds and this course will help you identify them; ten talks (with slides and recordings of birdsong) and half-day field outings (at weekends) to the best bird-watching haunts near Dublin. We examine how birds live, feed, breed and migrate, their psychology, society, behaviour, history and folklore. The approach is informal and relaxed. No previous knowledge is required.
