Today our little band picked litter and fly tip from the roadside boundary of the reserve and the "car park" at CE53, Two car tyres, five bags of litter and with not a little irony a pedal bin!
We then picked the grass verge on either side of the main track through the reserve, amongst assorted cans and footballs, we collected 36 bags of dog shit! yes there you have it I've used the S word, because I'm seriously fed up with the lack of respect that the minority of the public, most of whom are "locals", have for our great open spaces.
To me it's simple
YOUR DOG - YOUR RESPONSIBILITY - CLEAN UP AND BIN THE DOG POO.
I'm sure that the council have no responsibility to provide facilities for dog walkers to dispose of Fido's waste, but they do with bins in as many practical places as possible, and frankly I'd rather see my council tax being spent on schools and social care than on a bin for someone's dog poo.
A few days ago at Morfa Berwig I came across this, a Hazardous Waste container, dumped near the roundabout entrance. WHY!

Anyway a spot of stile repairing and fence inspection soon had us in better spirits, it was then off to check a Barn Owl box, well the Grey Squirrels had moved back in after being evicted some months ago, a female, was duly removed having been dead for some while, a victim of the cold?, along with a mountain of leaves and moss.
