      A question for Eddy Bayton (asking on behalf of Pete Marsh):

      In a recent posting, you mentioned a Whimbrel roost at Castle O’Trim. Do you know if this is at Damas Gill Reservoir or somewhere else nearby?

        I had a text exchange with Pete last night. My understanding is the roost is at Damas Gill. My contact now lives abroad and I have tried to contact him without success using all media I have. He first told me of them gathering there about 12 years ago when I was working with him. I believe his brother nows farms that land. Their father was the man who highlighted them to his sons but he has retired now and lives in a local village. None of them are in the phone book unfortunately so I have hit a brick wall.
