Four Reasons to Appreciate Hedges

We walk and drive by hedges every day, but have you ever stopped to appreciate them? While some people may consider them a nuisance, they are actually important for us…

An Outing to Wexford Wildfowl Reserve

Date: November 15, 2025
Time: 10:30 am
Location: Meet in reserve car park
Our Kildare branch invite you to join them for an outing to Wexford Wildfowl Reserve. Wexford Wildfowl Reserve is located on flat farmland on the North Slob which was walled off from Wexford Harbour and reclaimed from the sea. Over 250 bird species have been recorded on the Reserve, many of them Winter migrants from Greenland and Arctic Canada or from Scandinavia and Arctic Russia. Greenland White-fronted Geese are the most numerous and important goose species on the reserve and it is for them that it was established. They breed on the western lowlands of Greenland during the summer and winter in Ireland and Scotland from October to March. The North Slob holds about 5,500 or approximately 30% of the current world population of Greenland White-fronted Goose during these months.
