Stonechats



Stonechats are one of the few insectivorous birds to tough it out through the Irish winters.This leaves them highly susceptible to cold weather,so they often keep to coastal areas.This time last year there was one Stonechat at Clahane ,today there were six, feeding on flies in the washed up seaweed.
