Croeso a bore da pawb
Its been a while, quite a lot going on, so I'll try not to repeat myself.
Migrants have been arriving for a few weeks now, with Sand Martins leading the way, but now Chiffchaff and Willow Warblers are beginning to sing and a few Sandwich terns have been seen at Pembrey Harbour.
The recent run of North, North West and Westerly winds have slowed migration cross Europe and its considered to be a "late year", certainly for Ospreys which have become regular spring migrants along the coast, with a couple being seen locally.
Our Canolfan Natur, will be open on 7th, 9th 11th, 13th and 15th from 11am-2pm (maybe 3pm if its busy).
It's nothing fancy just a place for visitors to engage and appreciate sone of the wildlife to be found in Carmarthenshire, I've been promised some exhibits which I must collect soon but if anyone has any items such as skulls, pressed seaweeds, pinned insects, mammal or bird taxidermy (UK only) they wish to pass on for a wider audience please get in touch.
The significance of the species is, Strandline Beetle and Small Blue butterfly - specific targets for the Pembrey Coast SSSI habitats project; Pine Marten - established in the north of the county and moving south and the Marsh Harrier....
As this project develops over the next year we will be offering citizen science opportunities to help, under guidance, survey the strandline ecosystem on Cefn Sidan- more details to follow
Progress with the recruitment of a Conservation Ranger, for the life of the Pembrey Coast SSSI project, is being made but these things take time.
I am also looking to recruit more conservation volunteers, specifically for the LNR's on a Monday, email infopembrey@carmarthenshire.gov.uk for more info.
