Feeding station Reopens

 Croeso pawb,

Its nice to be back after a well deserved break, well I thought I deserved it anyway. It was certainly a lot cooler and wetter in Llanelli.

With autumn well underway now its noticeable how many trees still have leaves yet to think about changing to their autumn colours, whilst the Poplars are almost stripped bare the Norway Maple at Ynysdawela is looking superb.

I've had a few enquiries about the feeding station at Llyn Llech Owain County Park, asking if its going to be running this year, well after a man with a strimmer and a gang of eager participants from Carmarthenshire Youth Services I'm pleased to say that the feeding station is up and running.

It didn't take long to attract the birds, and today the photographers and birders are enjoying their antics.

When using the hide please respect other users and don't hog the front row if there's a queue, and certainly don't put up any sort of netting across the viewing slots!

The Wetlands and Estuaries Bird Survey, WeBS, count was very quiet this morning with disappointing numbers at the lakes that I check in the Millennium Coast Park, and at Old Pembrey Harbour, however a Kingfisher at Ffynnon Helyg and another this one hovering, at Old Pembrey Harbour were nice to see as were the 15 Curlew.
