Ancient scots pine and birch near Castlecove in Co. Kerry - revealed on low tide, some have been carbon dated to be from 4,000 years old, some even older at 5,000 years. Amazing!

So many of our Irish place-names refer to trees:
- Glenbeigh / Gleann Beithe / valley of the birch
- Valentia Island / Dairbhre / place of oaks
- Derrynane / Doire Fhionáin / oakwood of St. Fionán
- Parknasilla / Páirc na Saileach / field of the willows
