The Nature of Mountains Friday Evening 7.30pm  

The Nature of Mountains - What they are, what lives there and how do we react to them? This informal talk explores the ancient origins of the west of Ireland's mountains, the flora and fauna which make their homes in the hills today, and how our own nature is shaped by and reflected in our attitude to them.
Bio- A hillwalker for many years, Mark O'Callaghan is especially interested in the natural history of Ireland's landscapes and habitats, and has worked as a guide in the Burren, on the Skelligs and in the Wicklow
