Specialists join forces to organise wild weekends

Two leading wildlife specialists have joined forces to help people get close to the wild side of Ireland.

The Discover Wildlife Weekends will see people flocking to West Cork for a chance to explore the region’s magnificent coastal wildlife with expert local guides.

The weekend outings, which will be based at the Celtic Ross Hotel in Rosscarbery, are being organised by Ireland’s Wildlife, a magazine founded and edited by Calvin Jones, and will be co-hosted by the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group’s Padraig Whooley, one of Ireland’s leading marine mammal experts.
