  • Parakeets in Rome
    Niall was recently in Rome and met up with our former RTÉ colleague Colm Flynn, who is now Vatican Correspondent for EWTN. While strolling around Vatican City, their walk was interrupted by the noisy calls of parakeets.

  • Looking forward to Pope Leo’s Elephant
    Niall has primarily been in Rome to record segments for a special documentary called 'Pope Leo's Elephant', which will be broadcast this coming Christmas Day. It tells the story of an extraordinary diplomatic gift - a magnificent Asian Elephant named Hanno - that was sent to Pope Leo X by King Manuel I of Portugal in 1514.

  • Magpies nesting in November?
    We recently received an email from one of our loyal listeners, Conor Cunnane. Conor, who lives in Co. Kildare, noticed that Magpies are nesting in his garden. It's unusual for these birds to build their nests so early so we sent Terry Flanagan there to find out more.

  • Slender-billed Curlew declared extinct
    In a very sad development, a once-abundant species has formally been declared extinct. A highly migratory member of the wader family, the Slender-billed Curlew was a close relative of the Eurasian Curlew that we know and love here in Ireland. The last confirmed sighting was of a single individual at Merja Zerga, Morocco in 1995.
