And of course, we also watched out for flowers. Among them is Platanthera bifolia (lesser butterfly orchid) in the Burren.

Had a great day climbing in the Burren (Co. Clare, Ireland) with my friend Barry from Limerick.
We developed two new routes (first ascends) at Slieve Rua:
Broken Bum (HS), lead by Barry, and Midday in the Midlands (HS) lead by me.

'Literarischer Handlungsort'
[...] The little narrow trodden way that runs
From the white road to the Abbey of Corcomroe
Is covered up; and all about the hills
Are like a circle of agate or of jade.
Somewhere among great rocks on the scarce grass
Birds cry, they cry their loneliness.
Even the sunlight can be lonely here,
Even hot noon is lonely. [...]
From: The Dreaming of the Bones
by W. B. Yeats 1919
