A day to venture to WWT Llanelli, I haven't been able to visit due to other commitments for a few weeks, and I've missed a Cattle Egret.
This morning was autumnal with the wind blowing and rain falling as I walked to the British Steel hide, the sight was again great with 100's of birds on the scrapes.
Knot (several hundreds), Black-tailed Godwits, Greenshank (24), Redshank, Dunlin (several hundreds), CURLEW SANDPIPER (2), Little Egret, Curlew, Teal, Gadwall, Pochard, Wigeon, Mallard, LBB Gull, Herring Gull, BH Gull, Swallow (1) Sparrowhawk and then GREAT WHITE EGRET (1), too far away to photograph though.

Out on the estuary Great Crested Grebe (c12), and thousands of Oystercatchers.
I don't usually pay attention to Magpies but there was quite a smart one (I know I'm being kind) near the hide.
