Lakes Of Cavan

I'm doing an online presentation tonight for Science Week on the Lakes of Cavan project.
You can watch it live with this link (in comments), or if you miss it I'll put up the recorded version in the coming days

This could be a good way to see and explore the beauty of Cavan's lakes and countryside! There are so many lakes around Killeshandra, a lovely part of the world 🏞️🚶

The Killeshandra Camino Calling takes place on Saturday, 17 June 2023. The walk is 35.5km starting and finishing at Killeshandra Community Centre. The Camino is a great way to experience the unspoilt, picture-perfect countryside in Killeshandra.

"I grew up not far from the shores of Lough Oughter and remember mornings in summer with a fishing rod in hand, crossing the bridge at Killykeen to a wonderland of wildlife, tall trees and lapping water."

This is an extract from the foreword for my upcoming book 'Lakes of Cavan' by acclaimed writer Michael Harding.

I'm delighted to reveal that the Cavan native, Irish Times writer and author of several novels including 'Staring at Lakes' has helped with the project.

Regatta in the Rain⛵🌧️

Last month I photographed the Irish National Wayfarer Championships Regatta was hosted by the Ramor Water Sports Club at Lough Ramor.
It was a dull and wet day but there was plenty of action on the water!
