An Sionnach

An ball cliste de chlann na madraí – seo an speiceas sionnaigh amháin atá againn in Éirinn. Is ainmhí oíche é an sionnach agus tá sé mar ábhar in amhráin agus
finscéalta le fada an lá. Le linn an tséasúir póraithe, scaoileann na sionnaigh screadanna géara uatha a aithníodh leis an mbean sí san am atá caite.


Red Fox


This clever member of the dog family is
Ireland’s only species of fox. The fox is nocturnal and has long been the subject of fairy tales and songs. During the breeding season, foxes release chilling screams that in the past were attributed to the banshee.
