But the campus of Ireland's oldest university, founded in 1592, is a peaceful haven away from the busy streets of the Irish capital. A landmark in the university grounds, and indeed in Dublin itself, the campanile…

Beech trees fagus sylvatica are one of the finest trees to find in an Irish woodland. This non-native species was introduced at some point in history, many centuries ago at least, and has become so widespread that it would appear to be a native Irish tree.

We're back to that time of year again, summer has ended and winter is on its way. For now it's colourful autumn. Here in a gently sloping woodland, a small stream cuts a narrow path soon becoming a river but for now it's all gentle and pretty. And of course it's colourful.
The Irish hare Lepus timidus hibernicus is a distinct subspecies of the mountain hares found all over the northern latitudes of the northern hemisphere. All Lepus timidus except hibernicus change their coats of fur to white in winter to match with typical winter conditions of snow at such northerly latitudes.
