Fauna
The river Slaney at Kildavin is one of the best places in Ireland in winter to see the rare goosander : flocks of up to 30 have been seen here. It is not yet clear whether they are breeding locally, or are part of the recently established colony in County Wicklow. The yellowhammer, an increasingly rare songbird in Ireland, is locally common. Ireland's newest breeding bird, the great spotted woodpecker, has been seen here several times recently.
