The makers of the latest installment of the Star Wars franchise have been criticised for filming on a rocky outcrop off the coast of Ireland which is home to thousands of rare birds
Director JJ Abrams and Luke Skywalker actor Mark Hamill are among the cast and crew who have joined filming on Skellig Michael, off the coast of County Kerry, for Episode VII.

"This is totally inappropriate in terms of the timing," Stephen Newton of Birdwatch Ireland said.
"The birds could desert the island if they get too stressed out, by the amount of noise and vibration."
The last surviving crew member of the Enola Gay - the plane that dropped a nuclear bomb over Hiroshima - has died.
Theodore Van Kirk, the plane's navigator, died on Monday at his home in Stone Mountain, Georgia, aged 93.
The blast that destroyed Hiroshima
His role was to guide the Boeing B-29 Superfortress to the spot over Japan where the US's first nuclear device, Little Boy, was dropped.
The blast killed 140,000 people and, together with the Nagasaki blast, which killed another 80,000, helped bring about a Japanese surrender.
In 2005, Mr Van Kirk, whose nickname was Dutch, was interviewed by the Associated Press and told them atomic bombs do not settle anything and he wanted the weapons banned.
The dropping of the bomb ushered in the Cold War era, a period of heightened tension between the West and the Soviet Union, during which both sides stocked up on huge nuclear arsenals.
While he might have disapproved of the after effects of the Hiroshima attack, he later told the Daily Mirror it had been the right thing to do.
When asked if he regretted being involved, he said: "No, sir, I do not.
