The new Tralee Bay Wetlands Centre should be open by the end of March 2012, and includes a number of water-based and nature activities. From a birding perspective, it is difficult to guage the future value in terms of birdwatching. The main boating and angling ponds might draw in a few gulls and wildfowl, and the small area of wetland to the north and west of the viewing tower might be attractive to birds. The hide at the far west end of the Centre will hopefully give good views over the mudflats and saltmarsh of Blennerville. For an overview of the project, you can download this PDF file HERE. If we hear more, we'll let you know. Watch this space...
