Talk 3: Lunchtime with the Irish Peatland Conservation Council - The Curlew of Lodge Bog

Lunchtime with the Irish Peatland Conservation Council is a series of nine peatland talks that are designed to allow you the viewer, as a member of the public or peatland custodian, explore and discover peatland habitat and biodiversity, the benefits peatlands offer us all and shares methods used to complete a peatland habitat condition assessment, monitor species and restore peatland habitat. This third talk introduces the iconic peatland bird, the Curlew a species which has experienced a 98% decline in populations since the 1980's.
