Adult Squacco Heron, Ross Castle, 25th June 2017 (Ed Carty).
Kerry birders enjoyed the first Squacco Heron in Kerry in over a century at Ventry (see HERE), back in April of this year, so a second within a few months was a real shocker. And a beautifully pristine adult bird too. The bird is frequenting the reed-fringed edges of the lake at Ross Castle, near the boathouse. The fourth county record.
