Cape Clear Island, Co. Cork

[theacleire]

The boat on the first picture is the boat that goes from Schull to Cape not Baltimore :L

[myjugsarehuge]

@theacleire Well I was leaving Baltimore heading for Cape Clear and it passed us coming in as we were leaving Baltimore harbour? That is why its the first photo on the slideshow. This video was taken almost 2 years ago, maybe it changed route?

[theacleire]

@myjugsarehuge That's the Karycraft, it goes from Schull to Cape every summer. :D

[myjugsarehuge]

@theacleire I don't doubt it but we were going out of Baltimore harbour in Sept 2009 and it passed us, maybe it was doing a u turn lol, I'm not making it up I've only been from Baltimore to Cape clear once so I do remember what I saw and in what order

[neiltreloar]

@myjugsarehuge There is a massive Hill,you get no idea from the pictures here.At the bottom,and all over,I don't think they have M.O.T tests there,the cars looked like banger racers,real rust buckets,smoking wrecks.On the narrow roads though,those brakes had to work.A local told me,they are not the finest machines,but the brakes are powerfull enough to stop the Devil Himself!

1:45 those are wild birds that just came up to you ? great video

[myjugsarehuge]

No, it explains in the information on the right that this was a bird watching trip and the leader was ringing these migrating birds' legs to identify them in the future.

The birds are caught in a mist net, it doesn't hurt them. Then they are let go. Only takes a few minutes. These were Chiffchaff and Willow Warblers.

[myjugsarehuge]

It certainly is, this was my first visit I will definitely go again

[Paulmanorbier]

What a wonderful place - and I'd love to have a tractor like that

[myjugsarehuge]

I can just see you now lol

[bigbeninjax]

Nice place (and video). Sorry we missed this gem of a place. Enjoyed the tune, too. Wish I'd written that!

[myjugsarehuge]

Glad you enjoyed it, I enjoyed visiting and echoing John's sentiments below, I could live there quite easily and spend all day birdwatching and walking ...... oh well you can dream

[bigbeninjax]

Agreed! Enjoyed your comment about getting lost in Dunmanway (I'd give good money to put up signage at intersections in Ireland...lol)...at least you wouldn't have to worry about that on Cape Clear!

[fatheroblivion45]

What is this tune? It's wonderful!

[myjugsarehuge]

Thanks, I'm trying to find out for you I haven't forgotten :)

[jratt2]

Fantastic. It brought back lots of memories of my trip there at the end of August 2008, and especially of the nice beardy warden and the all the 'nct failures'. Its a gorgeous place, I would love to live there!

[myjugsarehuge]

The weather made it, absolutely glorious sunshine all day. I got really good views of the peregrines and chough. I'm pushing for us to stay down there for a couple of nights B&B in April/May it was a long day driving down and back home 150 miles by the time I got lost in Dunmanway, I was shattered.

[poitinstill]

And hey, I forgot to say, that music is so wonderful. I've forgotten the name of it, but I think its an old Irish ''slow air'' my late father used to play years ago.

[myjugsarehuge]

Thanks for the lovely comments, the music was on Audioswap, the artist is Kellerman and it just says "Irish March" for the title. I love it too.

[poitinstill]
