and a deep breath....
After quite a busy weekend around the local nature reserves, talking to lots of visitors including the local anglers, today was more of my time.
I popped into Pembrey reserve late in the afternoon and strolled onto Cefn Sidan beach where the steady breeze was whipping up the dry sand but I had the whole place to myself, again.
Signs of bird migration are slowing down but the mix of waders on the beach showed that some have yet to reach their breeding grounds in the high Artic yet, including a few colourful Sanderling, Dunlin and a group of eight Bar-tailed Godwits two of which were in full summer plumage.

On the home front the Starling RAS project continues, slowly.....
