Home can't be copied.
BUT, I finally managed to get a few pictures of Dublin's famous (?) spire:
Any eventlsessness of yesterday was more than compensated by today:
First, I walked out to Bull Island, where a so-called BioBlitz was going on. The BioBlitz aims at spotting and counting as many different species as possible. Ireland want s to get a biodiversity- snapshot.
So, on the walk, I, again was amazed by the lack of trees and areas, I'd rather be at-that is until I was at Bull Island.
Walking to Bull Island took me about 1,5 hours to cover the roughly 10km....
I obviously did take a few pictures and was working on my tan. But that only unvoluntarily..
The reason I went to Bull Island was not the organized BioBlitz, but an appointment I had with my supervisor to do our own BioBlitz.
We saw, among others, some orchids, Burnet moths and a few bumblebees. Not spectacular? Not, if you don't know, they are rare species...
To make an already long day longer, we also headed out to the location we are going to keep the company's trees at. I almost scored a job in pruning a tree using my rope-climbing skills, But I think, I have to give it a miss. Slightly too risky for my skill level..
Needless to say, today, I am more than ready for some rest..
