The Cliffs of Moher are one of Ireland's top Visitor attractions. The Cliffs are 214m high at the highest point and range for 8 kilometres over the Atlantic Ocean on the western seaboard of County Clare. O'Brien's Tower stands proudly on a headland of the majestic Cliffs. From the Cliffs one can see the Aran Islands, Galway Bay, as well as The Twelve Pins, the Maum Turk Mountains in Connemara and Loop Head to the South. The Cliffs of Moher take their name from a ruined promontory fort “Mothar” which was demolished during the Napoleonic wars to make room for a signal tower.
The Cliffs of Moher are home to one of the major colonies of cliff nesting seabirds in Ireland. The area was designated as a Special Protection Area (SPA) for Birds under the EU Birds Directive in 1986 and as a Refuge for Fauna in 1988. Included within the designated site are the cliffs, the cliff-top maritime grassland and heath, and a 200 metre zone of open water, directly in front of the cliffs to protect part of the birds' feeding area. The designation covers 200 hectares and highlights the area's importance for wildlife.
The cliffs of Aldeyarfoss are an extraordinary place for Arctic River Beauty to flourish, as this perennial herb usually grows on snowmelt-flooded gravel bars and scree.
A small herd of Bighorn Mountain Sheep Ewes and their young make their way up the steep rock cliffs where they are safe from most predators.Bighorn sheep typically inhabit alpine meadows, grassy mountain slopes and foothills near rugged, rocky cliffs and bluffs. Bighorn sheep cannot move though deep snow, so they prefer drier slopes where the annual snowfall is less than about sixty inches a year. A bighorn’s winter range usually lies 2,500-5,000 feet in elevation, while its summer range is tends to be 6,000-8,500 feet. Besides being highly susceptible to to certain diseases carried by domestic sheep such as scabies and pneumonia; additional mortality occurs as a result of accidents involving rocks falling and or falling off cliffs (a hazard of living in steep, rugged terrain). Bighorns are well adapted to climbing steep terrain where they seek cover from predators. Predation primarily occurs with lambs which are hunted by coyotes, bobcats, lynxes and golden eagles. Bighorn sheep of all ages are threatened by wolves, bears and especially cougars, which are perhaps best equipped with the agility to predate in uneven, rocky habitats.They are considered good indicators of land health because the species is sensitive to many human-induced environmental problems. In addition to their aesthetic value, bighorn sheep are considered desirable game animals by hunters.

This is another shot from Shark's Fin cove in Davenport that I frequent quite a bit. I purposely wanted to shoot in harsh lighting conditions to test out the 10 stop ND which I love by the way...
