Wednesday 23rd December 2015

With a decent day on the cards, and it being Wednesday it was volunteer day at Pembrey LNR.

When I arrived on site I was surprised how busy it was but then today was the first "dry" day for a while.

The light was great.

After talking to a few visitors I made my way on site to be greeted with the tell-tale signs of poachers- a group of blokes standing around looking at the ground with terriers standing by. Further investigation revealed 6 adult males  and three children, three or four terriers and a couple of ferrets, sadly one of the adults was a local sporting star!

After establishing the rights and wrongs they left and we carried on with some tasks.

Top of the list was putting up some information sheets in the hut, nothing too expensive just in case of vandalism.

Then it was completing the removal of a field fence before it fell into the sea, and a litter pick.

An increasing threat - Wildfire

  Bore da pawb, Sounds dramatic and maybe an odd thing to think about given the amount of rain storm Bert dumped on South Wales in the past ...
