What a stunningly beautiful day, the Pembrey reserve looked at it's best for early spring.
Of course not every day is straight forward, and today started off with a complaint from a horse rider that a dog had chased her and her daughters ponies down the beach.....
Then, although nothing to do with the reserve, the local RNLI Lifeboat was called out to assist a yacht in the estuary, a few hours later and the Coastguard helicopter did a round of the bay, the sunshine brings them out.....
Back to the reserve Wildlife was very evident with a pair if Pied Wagtails investigating the information shelter, a wandering Slow Worm, a couple of Field Voles and perhaps best of all a territorial male Lapwing, I wonder what he was up too?

A telephone call from local birder Adam informed me that he had found a female
BLACK REDSTART, a first for the site, disappointedly I couldn't relocate it. Bird species 90 of 2017.

A different route to the main parking area, it's not actually meant to be a car park, and what a pile of rubbish, three quarters of a black bag from less than a sq metre; why can't people just take their litter home.
