Polharrow Forrest Glen
-
Part of the Watson Birds Trail
With a view looking northwest towards the spectacular Rhinns of Kells, and surrounded by unimproved and semi-improved pasture, Donald Watson was here able to combine two of his great passions - painting and birdwatching. The lines of the Rhinns were a constant draw, especially when flying clouds brought alternating light and shade to the faces of the hills.
Around him in springtime were someof his favourite passerines: wheatear, whinchat and stonechat, with an occasional yellowhammer too.
