    Does anyone know the name of the tall black birds seen along the dart line between Bray and Greystones?

    I haven't seen them, but based on your description and the location near the sea, could they be cormorants?

    they are cormorants - loads of them living around Bray ahead - you often see them flying just above the surface of the sea in Greystones too.

    Thanks very much. Just come from a country with far more interesting bird life than here so I thought they looked kind of unique!
