Bore da pawb,
Another week gone and the sun eventually made an appearance. Not a huge amount to update you with this week, and no blog next week I'm having a holiday!
We ran two "roadshows" in the past week, the first for Green Warrior Day at Pembrey Country Park and the second for a Family Fun day at our hotel in Pendine. Both events were well attended and our conservation team stand got a lot of attention, I brought out the Whales bones for the Pendine show, they always go down well and only one young visitor insisted they were dinosaur bones!. I have sent measurements of the skull, scapular and rib bones to The National Museum of Wales, in Cardiff as they were interested in seeing what we actually have; is it a Whale??I tried a new layout for the "beach" table which worked much better
During the week Butterfly Conservation held a talk at the Black Mountain Centre and a walk around the Ynysdawela Nature Reserve, luckily the sun was out as was a Marsh Fritillary butterfly which was seen on the wing, I'd like to think we're doing something right.
The nesting rafts installed on Ffynnon Helyg and Sandy Water Park lake, have not attracted Terns to nest but are regularly used by gulls and cormorants for roosting, however the SWP raft has a nesting pair of Herring Gulls, not quite what was hoped for but a result nonetheless.
