Are you familiar with GoogleEarth? It is a free service which showes aerial views. Eastersnow is a hamlet in County Roscommon, Ireland, and you can see it on GoogleEarth. It seems to consist of a half dozen small farms across from a curiously dark field or bog.

I would like to know what the curiously dark field is.

We had stray flakes of snow today, coming from a blue sky studded with cumulus clouds. It seemed strange.
