Wednesday 7th October 2015
Better weather forecast today and feeling cooler than yesterday by a few degrees.
Wednesday is becoming my volunteering day with the volunteers at Pembrey burrows LNR, and so we met at around 10:15am for a bit of fencing and gate installation.

In 2014 the last reported Cuckoo in Carmarthenshire was on June 18th....
