A bird count on Cefn Sidan at not the best state of tide but still decent numbers of waders with the following between C56, the beach entrance at the Country Park, and the AWR tower.
Knot c1500, Sanderling c1000, Bar Tailed Godwit 2, Scoter c1000 offshore and a Red Throated Diver, (not as I mistakenly posted as a Black Throated Diver on Carmarthenshire Birds)

I ventured to look for the reported Great Northern Diver(s) off Old Pembrey Harbour but not seen.
The team have spent a few hours over the past few days removing large quantities of plastic which appeared on yesterdays tide from Cefn Sidan, and it was nice to see families doing their bit today picking up some of the smaller pieces of plastic, THANKS
In the park itself the best to report was a pair of Gadwall on the main pond, although the feeding station had a good range of woodland species in attendance.
A search for flowering plants only revealed, Daisy, Dandelion, Gorse and Hazel, I was expecting more and had I ventured onto the dunes I may have found a few more, I'll have to look next week.
