This mornings collection included a Lime-speck Pug and a Sharp-angled Peacock moth, both quite stunning looking moths.

Accompanying the moths were a number of Toad-lets, which I liberated back into the wild, they must have had quite a journey as the nearest pond is at least 2km away.
Yesterday evening the Carmarthenshire Bird Club held its annual Tern Watch event at Old Pembrey Harbour on the eastern boundary of the reserve, a good turnout of around 20 people saw a good range of birds, as detailed below, Turnstone and Mute Swan were new for the reserve list which now stands at 104 species for 2018.
