Guided Walk of Turvey Nature Reserve with Birdwatch Fingal

Guided Walk of Turvey Nature Reserve with Birdwatch Fingal

Would you like to explore the birdlife of Turvey Nature Reserve and Park in the expert company of Birdwatch Fingal? Come along to this guided walk with Dr. Frank Prendergast to see and hear birds in this unique habitat. 

Turvey Nature Reserve / Park is rightly called Dublin’s greatest wilderness. 

Under constant management by Fingal County Council, the area features wild meadows, wetland restoration, forest walks and the Broadmeadow Estuary which is a mecca for a vast range of ducks, waders and geese in winter months. Bird species include several raptor species - peregrine falcon, sparrowhawk, merlin and buzzard. Barn owls also hunt there. The walk is perfectly timed to coincide with the arrival of our spring migrants such as swallow, sand martin and various species of warbler. Bird song identification will be a feature of the walk, adding to what will be a most enjoyable event. All welcome, no booking necessary.

Please note this event involves walking and standing outdoors, so bring comfortable / appropriate clothing and footwear. The route will be wheelchair accessible.

This guided walk will leave from Turvey Nature Reserve Car Park at 10 am sharp on Wednesday, 1st May.

Meeting Point:

Turvey Nature Reserve Car Park, Turvey Avenue, Donabate

Wednesday, 1st May 10:00am – 12:00pm
