Upcoming Wild Kildare events

In addition to the range of local talks in Kilcullen over the next month or so on biodiversity and related environmental issues, a stand at the Cottage Market in Newbridge Town Hall on 7 March is well worth including in the diaries of all interested in such matters, writes Brian Byrne.

It will be manned by people from Wild Kildare, who will be delighted to talk to everyone on Wildlife and Biodiversity.

The event will run from 10am until 2pm and is free of charge.

The group will show some of the projects it is currently involved with, as well as answering any queries on pollination, wildlife, and biodiversity matters in general.

There’s no charge, and no booking required. Just turn up. More information available from wildkildare@gmail.com or phone 087 6872939.

Later in the month, on Wednesday 25 March from 8pm, Wild Kildare will be giving a talk on Irish moths, in Newbridge Parish Centre.

Moths are often an overlooked but very important part in our wildlife ecosystem. The presentation will be given by moth enthusiast Philip Strickland, who will talk about some of the 1,500 or so different moth species that call Ireland their home. The evening will also explain different techniques to trap moths and how they are used, and Wild Kildare's new moth project, recording the moths of Co Kildare.
