Its name in the Irish Language is ‘Crotach' which means humped or hump-backed.  Their large, long bill is soft and flexible. The Latin name is ‘NUMENIUS ARQUATA’. Sadly this bird is being hugely recognised as a highly endangered bird and is a RED listed bird in Ireland. It is estimated that there is only 100 - 138 breeding pairs in Ireland. It is one of our most beautiful waders with a fabulous, distinctive, yearning call. Garrett says when he hears the Curlew call, it gives him a great sense of belonging and relates it similarly to when he hears the sound of the Uilleann Pipes. Curlews can live up to 20 - 30 years old.HIDE FM is a Per Cent for Art commission by Fingal County Council.Please FOLLOW / SUBSCRIBE!Send all of your questions to info@garrettphelan.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Dw4RzhMAJnOZSdYSCpK_kUkRLOfStD0dcFSuocBxxgw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82Y2Ux/ZmNjM2VmMjc0NTdi/MWM0ZWMxOGQ2ZGM5/ZWVkZi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
