Natural habitat in Ireland
Upland and lowland bogs, wet grassland, damp pasture, estuaries and coastal mudflats 

In misty boglands and wide-open pastures, the curlew’s call rings out — low, haunting, and unmistakably wild. With its long, curved bill and slow, drifting flight, this wader is woven into Ireland’s wetland soul. Once common, now perilously rare, the curlew stands as both a survivor and a sentinel, reminding us of what’s being lost. It nests in hidden hollows, moves with gentle care, and sings a song older than any fence or field.

This piece honours the curlew’s fragile echo across the land — a mournful, beautiful thread in our shared natural story.
