There's a few around at the moment...

I think some are there all year TBH stevecrow74 & myself had them in December when the frost was all about... They might be less active but seem to be residents.

All year round! The only area they vanish from is around the mouth of the corrib, they don't seem to like large amounts of cold freshwater.
