Over the Border

BTO Wetlands Bird Survey for Carmarthenshire needs additional counters.  There are some vacant sites available near Laugharne, Kidwelly and along the Tywi Valley. These sites may suit Pembrokeshire birders living towards the east of the county.  
If anyone would like to take on one of these sites then please get in touch with me (alan.seago47@btinternet.com) or through the WeBS vacant sites website. Surveys involve counting birds at high tide once a month on a designated day each month. Counts are then uploaded on to the WeBS website and contribute to the annual reports on the status of wetlands birds in the UK.   A link to the vacant sites is shown below;
If you care about and know your water-birds, once surveying is again permitted, you would be very welcome to join us.
