Thyme Out
If she hadn't have said it I wouldn't have noticed it - this little hillock is an ant's nest, and nests like this are common on the Burren where they are usually covered in wild thyme, which is an alpine plant. Alpine plants are another weird aspect of this landscape. Here Ruth is testing sampling the herb.
You'll probably have noticed the extraordinary stones, which look almost like the sort you find in a play or the set of a film, made out of foam or whatever else. They are probably the most beautiful wall stones I've ever seen, due to their peculiar history.
By the way, the writing on her shirt reads "National Parks and Wildlife Service".
