Morfa Berwig Makeover! Thursday 14th December 2017

I went back to Morfa Berwig, in drier conditions than yesterday, to take photographs of the management work being carried out.

Now its a wetland site so any work at any time of year will be muddy, and current conditions are no exception.

With the entrance on the Berwig roundabout having received a makeover it looks a lot more inviting, when signage is in place it will look even better.

Management of the Willow and Gorse is essential as in short order they can both dominate the other vegetation, only about a third of each patch of scrub that needs controlling has been done and the result is open areas which will catch the sun allowing a richer diversity of plants and inverts' to colonise the areas until the scrub needs controlling again.

Yes it looks a mess and it's certainly muddy, but in  my opinion its a job well done, and in a few months you will not recognise the site.
