🐋 Since the end of November a humpback whale has been feeding in the Shannon Estuary close to the Clare-Kerry ferry route. How lucky are we to have this majestic mammal in our waters! There’s a very good chance he’ll be spotted from Irrus as he makes his way back out to sea to continue his journey southward. For more info: https://www.rte.ie/radio/radio1/clips/22470443/.

🦈 We had the pleasure of joining Simon Berrow this past September on Loop Head, Co.Clare to marvel at the basking sharks breaching every few minutes off the headland - a truly spectacular experience!
In this short clip Simon explains more about this impressive species and their behaviour and why Irish Atlantic waters are a haven for basking sharks.
