Laughable stuff. There was once a serious intent among a couple of independent TD’s, in Ireland to lead a peace delegation consisting of themselves and, ehhh …. nobody else, to Nth Korea

I wonder if in quiet moments of reflection do @MichealMartinTD and @SimonHarrisTD ever think if 🇮🇪 recognising 🇵🇸 7 mths into war actually emboldened Hamas to keep going? Even making it conditional on release of hostages might hv made a difference. How many 🇵🇸s died as a result?

How about this in Ireland ? Instead of releasing thousands of non-native pheasants, re-introduce the native grey partridge. Gun clubs co-operate with grain growers and sponsored by @NPWSIreland @COSullivanTD @NARGC11 @BirdsMatter_ie @IFAmedia

This is off the wall. There is a peace deal on the table which has been accepted by everyone except Hamas. You should be demanding they accept it

I think the video may be a bit better

Buff-breasted Sandpiper. Weirdly out of place in l’Albufera

Temmincks Stint. A bird you can never get tired of watching

A clatter of Little Stints. Adults in winter plumage, a plumage we don’t often see in Ireland. The look much more like Dunlin in winter

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary Tom Cruise. Now there’s a guy who earns his pay check

Finally got round to reading a Christmas present. “Eight Bears” by @GloriaDickie What a fantastic read ! Packed with information about the worlds bears in a very readable and quite moving format. Great insights into ecology and a cast of truly heroic figures

If Britain is running out, then we are running out as we have no gas storage capability of our own thanks to five years of a dithering minister responsible for energy. No LNG terminal, no gas storage, no solution, no clue https://t.co/d1qZvuWWBd

Told yiz. 😕😎

If MSF, UNWRA etc just came clean and said we’ve a tough job and it requires us turn a blind eye to activities going on under our nose and at times mix with some unsavoury characters for the greater good, most wud understand. Instead they deny everything and get caught in the lie

The UNIFIL base referred to in this report is actually UNP 6-52 which is an Irish Army base. The Hezbollah tunnel runs within a few hundred metres. Let’s recall that Pvt Seán Rooney was murdered by Hezbollah. Can anyone in @defenceforces explain why this tunnel was tolerated?

Excellent work all round. Illustrates the importance of maintaining a patchwork of CFR forest management which is much more beneficial for avian biodiversity than Continuous cover CCF in an Irish context

Survey of breeding Nightjar in suitable habitat in Co's Kilkenny & Wexford reveal 1 breeding pair. More survey effort & conservation needed to help this species. Note video link ⬇️in text . Well done all & tks for funding @KilkennyNotices @wexfordcoco https://t.co/JwYDF6tNZC

@KeithMillsD7

If this is correct thank goodness for a lucky escape. But it raises the question why would a UN patrol drive past a Hezbollah installation and make no attempt to dismantle it ? How exactly are they “keeping the peace” ?
