Cattai Wetlands, Coopernook

These wetlands are a spectacular project recovering from years of grazing and clearing. The walks are very easy and there is quite a lot to see. Many species of birds are found her as well as a healthy population of frogs and reptiles.

Since our visit was on a dull and light rainy day we were not able to see as many birds. We did hear quite a few though. This spot is on our return to list.

As we checked out the info board on the way in there was a notice proclaiming numerous mosquitos. That was misleading. With several layers of deet spray we were still menaced by thousands of the hungry buggers. Next visit will be in winter.Læs mere
