“Kilruddary with birds”was an imaginary composition made during the pandemic restrictions.

There is a beautiful estate house nearby called “Killruddery” that stayed open for people during the lockdown.

Where people could enjoy woodland walks surrounded with interesting birds and animals. It was a wonderful place to go when there was no freedom. I was very grateful for the escape.
