Join our Sligo branch for an outing to the goose fields at Lissadell and Raughley.
From October through April, it serves as the main mainland wintering ground for a flock of roughly 3,000 Barnacle Geese that migrate from Greenland. In addition to the Barnacle Geese, the seasonal pond and surrounding coastal grasslands attract overwintering waterfowl and waders.
