Fresh Irish air

So, I'm currently in Ireland, Parrot sitting on the beautiful Donegal coast. Inside I've got Jack the African Grey and Buttercup the budgie for conversation and when I step out of the door it is just me and the Atlantic ocean, the wind is salty and cool with a hint of cow from the field across the way. I can bird watch to my hearts content, herons, sea gulls, sparrows, blue tits, swallows, maybe a sparrow hawk if I'm lucky, and frequent visits from 'Matilda' the hooded crow with her boyfriend, and 'Tup Tup' the pheasant with his hens. Perfect.'The freshest air in Europe' my Granddad says, and it feels it.

A wee reminder that I'm fundraising for the wonderful charity Read International, I will be jumping out of a plane in July. If you can spare even £1 that would be fantastic, you can find out more and donate direct to the charity online at http://www.justgiving.com/Giselle-Silvester , it takes a few seconds an will really be appreciated by me, the team and the people of Tanzania.

Massive love to Everyone
