New role busy start update Tuesday 29th May

I started my new GDB, ( I mean this in the most positive way as the role is so varied) role with the Outdoor Recreation Service on Saturday the weather was not great until Monday when we had a busy bank holiday, four hours of saying " hi, that's £5 please here's your receipt have a great time..."

On the plus side whilst out and about in the park I found a HORNET, as well as a few fledged MISTLE THRUSH, a ROBIN feeding young in one of the workshops and SWALLOWS investigating nesting sites.

Hornet, Vespa carbo

I checked the reserve before and after my shifts, they are looking magnificent with a wide range of flowers on show, the SOUTHERN MARSH ORCHIDS, are just coming into flower.

Thanks to Bernie for letting me know of his bird sightings, adding KITTIWAKE and believe it or not SAND MARTIN (I still haven't seen one at Pembrey) to the year list which is now at 100.

Get out and about the sun  is here... for now!
