BIRD RINGING DEMONSTRATION
East Coast Nature Reserve, Sea Road, Newcastle

All Welcome / Free

NOVEMBER 13th (Sunday) 9AM – 12AM

Come see some of your favourite garden birds in the hand at the East Coast Nature Reserve. See how licensed bird ringers catch and ring birds using mist nets in order to study their life history and ecology. Bird ringing demonstration days are a great opportunity to see some of the best-loved birds up close and to find out more about this important conservation work. There will be an opportunity to ask questions, go through the key identification features and explain how to recognise the species in the field. Feel free to come and go anytime during the session as birds will need to released once ringed. Outdoor clothes advisable. Kindly funded by the Heritage Office of Wicklow County Council.
