This week on Shush!, my guest was @jackmurphynature.bsky.social Murphy, Head Gardener at UCC. We chatted about biodiversity on campus, student wellbeing, libraries, and his music picks. A lovely listen! 🎧 bit.ly/Shush295 #UCC #Biodiversity #ShushRadio #UCCLibrary

A man wearing headphones and a green shirt sits in a radio studio, speaking into a microphone. Papers are spread out in front of him on the desk, which also holds a control panel with buttons and sliders, another microphone, and a digital clock showing '13:39:32'. A window behind him reveals another room.

A promotional image for 'Shush! Sounds from UCC Library' featuring a playlist titled 'Shush 295 - Jack Murphy Takeover.' The playlist includes songs by The Gloaming, Talking Heads, Whipping Boy, Tom Waits, The Band, The Cure, Microdisney, Ye Vagabonds, Billy Bragg, Lisa O'Neill, and Fontaines D.C

I'll be giving a talk this Saturday on creating nature habitats in your garden or community setting supported by my colleagues from Wildflowers of Newmarket.

The blackbirds in the Lower Grounds certainly enjoyed the effects of Thursday nights rain. It was such a joy to stand back and see them preening themselves.

Delighted to give my first tree talk of 2025 to the dept of Learning and Teaching UCC. We looked at some of our more interesting species around the Quad and Presidents Garden and spoke about the connections people had with the trees and folklore associated with the trees. @ucclibrary.bsky.social
