One of Northern Ireland 's most endangered birds is the subject of a wildlife cam project run by the RSPB.

A Hidden Camera has been installed close to a pair of curlew nests in the Antrim Hills.

" Right now, they are taking it in turns to incubate their four eggs.

" It's addictive viewing, and over The Next 10 days the drama will really unfold.

" Viewers will see romance, hear their tuneful vocals, and wait in suspense for their fluffy chicks to hatch.

" Already their personalities are Shining Through - Luna is quite the character, she's a plucky female who isn't easily ruffled and her partner Bill is a devoted parent, who will happily take the Night Shift . "

She Said curlews are a species that people emotionally connect with as they are associated with Irish folklore.

" RSPB NI is working with land-owners, farmers and local communities, to help change their fortunes and secure The Future of breeding curlews in the Antrim Hills and Lough Erne as part of the Curlews in Crisis project, " Ms Gibb added.
