St Bridgid’s day on Benbulben

St Bridgid’s day failed to live up to the promise to deliver the introduction of Spring.

The only female patron saint of Ireland renowned for light and the end to the darkness of winter.

Her influence was definitely muted as we battled our way through strong winds rain and mist. But heading towards our final goal of Benbulben head the clouds and mist lifted and the wee resident male grouse hopped and fluttered alongside and it was as if St Bridgid still had her say

Thank you Sean and Jenny for taking time during their brief visit back to their homeland to do this hike

We enjoyed your company immensely ♥️
