Comments : Starling Murmuration in their Tens of Thousands One of the best sites to visit, from December through to February is Lilliput Adventure Centre, No charge for entry, parking or viewing and Google Maps on any good phone will get you there no problem, located in Johnathan Swift Park, on the shores of Lough Ennell, 10 minutes from Mullingar, Co. Westmeath and approxmially one hour from Dublin To be in with a good chance of viewing them, be there one hour before complete sunset on a calm evening , Reason why we missed out on all the best action, It is a magnificent sight to behold, one of natures triumphs.. . . .
