This morning I found time to wonder around the lake just 100m from the house at Sandy Water Park, I am finding it hard to believe that I am so close to so much nature.

New Home and Patch
After several 300 mile round trips between Cirencester and our new home in Llanelli I finally managed to get out and do some birding.
We are living in an area called Sandy Water Park, the house is 100m from a large lake and only 300m from the Loughor estuary.
WWT have a centre about five miles away, so it was here I spent a few hours, I was surprised by the very warm and genuine welcome from the locals.
Some dodgy photos to follow
