Birdwatch Ireland contact Brian Caffrey gave me the whereabouts of the
Corncrakes identified in our area.There was only one calling male recorded
in Shannonbridge this year on Boranagh. After that the nearest recorded
calling males were at Fahns (1) Co.Roscommon, Brackagh (1) Co.Offaly and
Bishops Islands (3) Co.Galway, which are near Banagher.
Brian is hoping to hear 30 calling male corncrake next year or even more.
