You have to watch Birdsong on RTE One this eve. I've seen some of it and I've been looking forward to watching it all with my nature loving kids. Amazing work from Seán Ronayne Irish Wildlife Sounds ❤️
Seán, you should be very proud!

🚲It was great to join the Critical Mass cycle in Bangor this morning.

Farmers know the climate has changed and we need to help them all we can to face the challenges they face. Ignoring it is detrimental to farming

National Parks are a little like buses, it seems - you wait 25 years for one, then two come along at once 😉

Beautiful weather, lots of fun and chats, entertainment for the kids and tasty healthy treats from Greystones Momma
Great work again from all Street Feast delighted to join the launch in Greystones today.
It’s about community, neighbours, connecting, chats and new friendships.

What's going to happen biodiversity on Ireland's small farms?

There is an interesting group of articles in this week's Farmers Journal.

“These European elections are crucial in battling the far-right. Greens and LIVRE are the progressive forces fighting for a strong and united Europe. We will build a fairer and greener #EU : fit for the future .”

“'If you're active, if you work hard, if you get into the technical side of dossiers, you’re the owner of that legislation.”
Good to have a write-up on the detail of what MEPs actually do from Tony Connelly rte.ie/news/analysis-…

.Ciaran Mullooly and Eddie Punch are adopting the ostrich approach to climate change, sticking their heads in the sand and pretending it isn’t happening. The Green approach is to acknowledge it’s happening and work with farmers and everyone else to curb its worst effects.

Elect a strong team to Europe. Here's a picture from our Manifesto launch! 😉 Vote Pauline, Ciarán and Grace number 1! One per constituency

Delighted to be there to see the amazing Grace O'Sullivan on her voyage this afternoon from the Port of Cork.

Grace is a voice for peace, farmers and the sea in Europe — a vote for Grace in #EP24 is a vote to keep that voice against the EPP, far-right and their false promises.
