Cabragh wetlands outside Thurles (Grid Reference: S108552) was our next fieldtrip stop on the 6/Oct/2010. Here we started the day by taking measurements along the Cabragh river such as water flow rate, slope and aspect. We conducted a biotic index to discover what invertebrates were present. This helped gauge pollution levels and overall health of this stretch of river. We also spent some time doing Bird identification in a Bird hide.
