Description
The Lough is a lake in south-west Cork City that holds interesting waterbirds, particularly in the winter months. Canard souchet can be easily seen here and at times the numbers can reach national importance. Sarcelle d'hiver and Fuligule morillon are also regular here and occasionally Fuligule milouin, Canard chipeau and Canard pilet 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 Héron cendré and Aigrette garzette. In recent years, Héron garde-boeufs has also been recorded regularly.
The lake is probably best known for the chance to see rare gulls. Goéland à bec cerclé and Goéland leucophée have been seen most winters, as have Goéland à ailes blanches and Mouette mélanocéphale. Mouette de Bonaparte and Goéland bourgmestre have also been observed here.
In spring and summer, the lake is much quieter but Foulque macroule breed, as do the feral Oie cendrée.
