Ceol na Sióg - a podcast by BBC Radio Ulster

Téann Cormac Ó hAdhmaill, láithreoir, in éineacht le cúigear páistí ag taiscéaladh i gCoill Tulaigh Mhór i gContae an Dúin. Labhraíonn siad faoina bhfeiceann agus a gcluineann siad ann, faoi na crainn, na hainmhithe agus faoi na plandaí a mhaireann sa chuid álainn seo den domhan. Foghlaimíonn na páistí faoi na crainn dúchais mar chrann darach na hÉireann, leithéidí an iora rua, agus a bhfuil ar siúl lena chinntiú go dtiocfaidh an t-iora rua slán. Cluinfidh muid fosta faoi na héisc in Abhainn Shimhné a shileann tríd an choill chéanna agus an iomad éan a mhaireann sna crainn. Chomh maith leis sin, tá ceithre bheochaintí liriciúla (le teidealú aibhsithe orthu) mar dhúshraith ag an phodchraoladh seo, ina bhfiosraítear go ceolmhar, an draíocht atá sa domhan thart orainn. Corcra Media a léirigh do BBC Gaeilge le tacaíocht ó Chiste Craoltóireachta Gaeilge Scaileáin Thuaisceart Éireann.

Presenter Cormac Ó hAdhmaill is joined by five children as they set out to explore Tollymore forest in County Down and talk about the sights and sounds there, the trees, animals and plants that inhabit this beautiful part of the world. The children learn about native trees such as the Irish oak, animals such as the red squirrel and the measures being taken to ensure their survival, the fish of the Shimna river which runs through the forest and the many birds who live among the trees. This programme is supported by four songs in captioned animation. Produced by Corcra Media for BBC Gaeilge with support from Northern Ireland Screen’s Irish Language Broadcast Fund.
