On #ThisDayInHistory in 1575, the English proved the more ruthless of Ireland's colonizers. #FrancisDrake provided naval cover for the #RathlinIslandMassacre, as English troops overran a Scottish castle off #Antrim, killing ~600 people, many refugees from other English attacks.

#Photography #Ireland #Antrim #Nature 🧵1/3 Trip down to Antrim this morning to see what wildlife is around. It’s very concerning to see such a complete and total absence of insects in the flower gardens; and this seems to be the case in many parts of Ireland Upper this year.

#Photography #Ireland #Antrim #Nature 🧵 2/3 Continued photos from Antrim… The literal two bees I saw this morning - a honey bee - the first one I’ve seen this year, and what I think is a white tailed bumblebee. Then there’s the two parent ducks with their almost adult ducklings who are getting their adult plumage, although it’s still quite pale.
