Beschreibung
The Lough is a lake in south-west Cork City that holds interesting waterbirds, particularly in the winter months. Löffelente can be easily seen here and at times the numbers can reach national importance. Krickente and Reiherente are also regular here and occasionally Tafelente, Schnatterente and Spießente can be seen. The island on the lake provides an excellent roosting area and hundreds of corvids can be seen arriving in on winter evenings and are often joined by Graureiher and Seidenreiher. In recent years, Kuhreiher has also been recorded regularly.
The lake is probably best known for the chance to see rare gulls. Ringschnabelmöwe and Mittelmeermöwe have been seen most winters, as have Polarmöwe and Schwarzkopfmöwe. Bonapartemöwe and Eismöwe have also been observed here.
In spring and summer, the lake is much quieter but Bläßhuhn breed, as do the feral Graugans.
