6 whale grounding ever in Ireland and now we get 2 in the space of a few weeks.

Does anyone know if there are any millatary ships of the coast? I saw a documentary before that linked the sonar from these ships to whale groundings.

Is there anywhere that has information about migratory patterns or details on where whales feed around the Irish coastline, it would be interesting to see if there is a pattern
