Saturday 28th November 2015

With high tide at a more respectable time of around 07:30hrs I was in position early to check out the duck on the marsh at Pembrey LNR.

As the light improved I managed to find:

Teal +100, Mallard c15, Wigeon c15, Redshank 47, Curlew + 5, Green Sandpipers 2. B H Gull +100, Common Gull 1, Peregrine 1, Sparrowhawk 1♀, Goldcrest 1, Skylark 7 (including a partial albino), Buzzard 1

If the site was visited by more birders I am sure that the number of species recorded would grow.

What this morning showed was the limit of a 9m tide, useful for determining net sets in the right weather.
