Irish Examiner view: 'Dawn Chorus' an opportunity to savour

if there was a single birdsong that will delight us more than all of the above, it would be the song of the corncrake

RTÉ's 'Dawn Chorus' highlights the wonderful diversity of Irish birds, such as robins, sparrows and warblers. 

The annual avian extravaganza that is RTÉ’s Dawn Chorus gives the public an opportunity to savour the beauty and vibrancy of our native birdlife.

This year’s event, last Saturday was no different, highlighting yet again the wonderful diversity of Irish birds: Robins, sparrows, blackbirds, thrushes, wood pigeons, wrens, and warblers. So too the songs of our seabirds — gannets, puffins, kittiwakes, razorbills, terns, cormorants, and godwits.
