Students from Scoil Mháthair Dé celebrated #NationalTreeDay @LimerickCouncil's @limklibraries, Dooradoyle with Willow Weaver Elaine Feely. During the workshop, the students created bird feeders using willow rods. Thank you to the @NPWS for their support.

Happy #NationalTreeDay! Rowan trees are dazzling at the moment with their bright red berries. Also known as Mountain Ash, their blossom is rich in pollen and nectar. One of our best pollinator-friendly native trees.
