BBC Radio Ulster - Countryside, Life on Machair, Comber Earlies and Fermanagh fishing

Orchids and bees return to Donegal, Comber Earlies and gone fishing in Fermanagh.

The birds and bees return to Donegal, the Comber Earlies come to the boil and angling for a big catch in Fermanagh.

You’re never too old to get a lesson on the birds and the bees and in this edition of Countryside presenter Nicola Weir finds out more about some returning species in Donegal. The latest data on rising bovine TB numbers has been released – but will it help in the fight? Open Farm Weekend kicks off at Murray Farm in Aghalee, Comber Earlies hit the shelves and anglers hit the banks for Lough Erne for a fishy competition.
