Cork  >  Ireland

The campus grounds of UCC offer walks through some mature woodland and along the river. Possibly the best place in Cork City to see Pigliamosche.

Descrizione

University College Cork's campus grounds holds some old mature woodland that offers chances to see woodland species while not having to travel too far from the city centre. Regolo and Rampichino alpestre can be seen throughout the year, while Cesena and Tordo sassello can sometimes be seen foraging on some of the greens and Codirosso spazzacamino occasionally appear on or around the college buildings.

Spring and summer is when the most species can be seen and heard. Capinera, Luì piccolo and Luì grosso can all be found on the campus, while a pair or two of Corvo imperiale breed on some of the tallest trees found on the grounds. The area is also probably the best place to see Pigliamosche in the city. The area around the Geography Building (see map) is probably the best spot to see this elusive species.

Part of the south channel of the River Lee flows through the campus and there is a river walk along with numerous bridges that offer chances to see Ballerina gialla and Martin pescatore.

Accesso

The university campus is a 15 minute walk from the city centre of Cork City. Alternatively, there are multiple bus routes that stop at the university. It is recommended to walk or take public transport as it can be difficult to find parking and can be quite expensive.

Informazioni aggiuntive

Within the vicinity of the campus grounds, it's possible to see breeding Rondone comune at Highfield Avenue (see map). The screaming parties on this street can be seen quite well, particularly in the evening. Saint Fin Barre's Cathedral, a ten minute walk from the campus (see map), holds a pair of Falco pellegrino. A visit early in the morning can be fruitful when the traffic is quieter and the birds are quite active.
