The Birds of Ireland, Jim Wilson with photography by Mark Carmody –

Today Mary is talking to Jim Wilson and Mark Carmody.
Jim Wilson in a wildlife writer, broadcaster, tour leader and former chairman of Birdwatch Ireland. 

Mark Carmody has a PhD in biochemistry and works as a European Patent Attorney. He is an award winning wildlife photographer.


They have published a brand-new edition of this birdwatching field guide by leading experts (and uncle-nephew duo!) Jim Wilson and Mark Carmody at the end of March. It’s the only photographic identification guide of its kind in Ireland and has been updated to include climate and habitat changes, 1600 photos and a list of birds of birds of conservation concern also. Their driving force behind the book was to increase awareness of Ireland’s national heritage and landscape. Its publication date falls around springtime when the days are getting longer, and people are keen to explore nature around them. This book is the perfect companion!
