Back into the woods today. This is Cruagh Woods at the river near the entrance to Tibradden. I _think_ that is the Glencullen River - please correct me if you know better.

At Knocksink Woods today the lower path was slippy near the river and blocked with trees, while the upper path was also blocked with fallen trees and resonated with the unnerving sound of creaking timber 😬. Ah well, a good time nonetheless.

Beautiful deep heather on the slopes of Seefin Mountain. Merlin, Red Kites, Ravens cutting through the air. Crossed dried out sphagnum pools and saw the burn scars around Kippure. A procession around the old passage tomb. Driving home, Glencullen wreathed in flame, Glencree choked in smoke.
