American visitor
This American Wood Duck and its mate have taken up residence on a pond near us, I'm informed they're probably escapees from captivity and haven't made their own way accross the Atlantic. Colourful fellas though.

The Rising of the Moon
The best plans often don't work out, I realised the other day that I'd have an oppertunity that doesn't often arise to get a shot, the full moon rising over the snow capped Wicklow mountains, so I set myself up on Saturday and Sunday to have a go. Of course the weather put a stop to my chances but I wanted to see would my planning have worked out so I popped up to my vantage point last evening, the moonrise was later so no hope of capturing the snow covered peaks but I think this turned out OK.

Hanging around waiting for spring
Met Eireann said today that we've had the coldst winter since 1963/64 and it shows no sign of loosening its grip, we had snow again the other morning.

Taking the Strain
We were in Wexford today with the U13's , after a very hard fought match, a little unluckily we lost out by 2 points. No quarter was given or taken, hardy men all of them.

Where is Spring-
Well the snowdrops are in full bloom now, but no real sign of spring as yet.

Red Bluff
Between having a bit of a dose on me and the grey weather I havn't been out and about recently, so this is from the archives, to remind me or warmer times.

A little bit of spring
The weather looks as if it's going to get colder again here but at least there is a promise of spring.
