Galway

Galway native and bird expert, John Lusby, is our guide to the wildlife and wild places hidden in plain sight on the streets and surrounds of Galway City. From adorable cygnets taking to the water for the first time watched by anxious parents to stunning slow motion footage of the Lesser horseshoe bats of Menlough Castle, there are creatures to meet and marvel at around every corner. Featuring the otters who have made Galway’s canals their home, salmon battling their way upstream at the city’s iconic weir, starlings coming to roost above the oblivious heads of passers by in Eyre Square and hungry Barn Owl chicks at feeding time, this promises to be an hour of enchanting and eye-opening natural history television.
