A gentle reflection on life in the beautiful Dromara Hills in County Down, Northern Ireland. When you go through The Mountain Gate with Maggie Doyle, you'll hear stories about this landscape and the natural world. In this Spring episode, Maggie is reunited with a friendly starling, explores the history of the Red Kite population (www.redkitetoursni.com) and talks to artist Rachel Fitzpatrick about finding inspiration in birds nests (www.rachelfitzpatrickdesign.com) Finally, she reads a poem called Dechomet Mountain written one hundred years ago by a young poet called Michael McKay.
