Nature in Ireland

The Cormorant is a big diving bird with a long neck. Normally they call it a “Diver”.

It gets food by taken fish in the water surface. The Cormorant is well known as a bird that has spreads his wings out to dry while it is standing on a post.

The Comorants plumage is beautiful black and in the summer time the grown up birds has a white blotch in the head. The younger birds have a much more brown plumage.

Cormorant lives in groups in colonies on the rocky seaside and in threes around the lakes in Ireland.

The cliffs of Moher are a mountain range on the Irish west coast near Galway. When you stand on the mountain range you can hear the booming between the waves and the sandstone. The mountain range is 8 kilometres long and 214 meters high at the highest place.

When the waves came fast the cliff sometimes give away and the stones fall into the water.     

On the west coast it is a bit of windy and if you are climbing you can gets some blow of the cliff. All around the mountain there are signs that tells people not to go to far, but many people still do.

You can see the mountain from a boat.
