Don’t tell anyone, but our sunny, mild mid 50″s weather continues. Almost all the other tourists think the end of September is to late to enjoy this fine land. Glad this misconception holds true, as it allows Molly and me to enjoy this lovely land without many other folks around.

Yesterday we went hiking at the Kerry Cliffs which rise 1,000 feet above the Atlantic Ocean. The birding wasn’t bad either! The birding took place in the farm fields through which we hiked up to the cliffs.

We then lost the 1,000 feet in elevation down to the small town of Port Magee. In addition to the Great Black-Backed Gull (see below), we ate dinner at a small pub / cafe where Luke Skywalker apparently learned to “draw the perfect pint”! (some pics from the filming of Star Wars adventure)
