The Gearagh is a magnificent place. It is the remains of a post-glacial alluvial rainforest formed after the last ice age, and it was flooded again more recently as part of the hydro scheme in the 1950s. It attracts wildlife, including travelling and migrating birds, from all over. It is a magnificent place in Macroom, County Cork. What efforts can be made to designate it as a national park, enhance its status and recognise it as the magnificent place it is?
