A fire has broken out in a field in North County Dublin.
The hay bales are being attended to by Dublin Fire Brigade.
Officers say, despite recent rain, the land is still very dry and a fire can be sparked easily.
They're warning drivers and people passing fields in cars not to throw cigarette butts out the window when done with them.
