Plovers, reflecting

[(RIP) Bin Ridin]

Hi,

We have a lagoon for irrigation water at the back of my office. Spotted these chaps taking a break, them not me!

"The Spur-winged Lapwing or Spur-winged Plover (Vanellus spinosus) is a lapwing species, one of a group of largish waders in the family Charadriidae."

its hard to believe, it was build in the 1840s and has a huge amount of history for the people of longford,
all the records of weddings,baptisms,funerals and so on have been destroyed.
there was a documentary sky recently about the tapestries and designs of the roof
the whole county is heartbroken a terrible tragedy at Christmas only good thing is no one got hurt

Hope it gets rebuilt but the losses will be irreplaceable. Sad indeed.
