Hi everyone, will be highlighting some of our villages features over the next few weeks, as an introduction to #Geashill

One of my ABSOLUTE favourites is Lady Muc.
Muc is the Irish word for pig & this beauty was created out of old farm equipment by the immensely talented Luke Carson

What a day for Geashill in Croke Park - with Tidy Towns winning the County Award and a Gold Medal, while Raheen GAA Bravehearts descended from the sky.

There is a moment at this time of year when the word ‘apricity’ really comes into view. For those who don’t know it, it was recorded only once, in 1623, before slipping out of view. Apricity is the warmth of the sun on a chilly day.

Found this utterly enchanting video and had to share!

Bats filmed upside down, looking like they’re at a goth nightclub.

Excellent footage! 🦇

Our first time holding both Dawn & Dusk Chorus Walks in the same year & what enjoyable events they've been.

Many thanks to the hardy souls, residents & visitors who gathered by The Green at 4.15am to witness, first Blackbird, then Robin, followed by Thrush & then all together

DUSK CHORUS WALK
A big thank you to Ricky Whelan for leading us through a lovely relaxing walk filled with birdsong this evening.

It's great to have someone to hand with so much knowledge, not just of the calls of our garden and woodland birds but insights into the fascinating lives they lead.
