AMERICAN COOT in MAYO

The AMERICAN COOT was still present in the outflow stream up to 1700hrs. Either view from Termoncarragh graveyard or from the field near Annagh Marsh where access has very kindly been granted. Access via taking road to Annagh just before Annagh Marsh and after two new white houses on right and newly built one on left, turn right along a track and park off the track at the end. Go through right hand gate up onto the "hill" overlooking the outflow stream. ENSURE TO CLOSE GATES AS SHEEP ARE IN FIELD.

Dave Suddaby also had an AMERICAN BUFF-BELLIED PIPIT at Belderra Strand today just below the car park. This is just over a mile west of An Geata Mór. Take the first right beside the school and Church. This was his 250th Mullet bird, an incredible hallmark (kindly contributed by Dermot Breen)
