Farmers have signed up to take part in a new multi-million euro coastal nature project that will encompass 5,000 hectares.
Just over 100 breeding pairs of curlew are now left in Ireland, according to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM).
On World Curlew Day, BirdWatch has said that the curlew is a "symbol of successive government failure" to protect Ireland's bird species.
