Bird lovers can find out more about their feathered friends which populate the Tywi estuary and the Ferryside foreshore.
A talks about the birds in that area is taking place at Ferryside Village Hall on Wednesday, December 16 at 8pm.
Neil Calbrade from the British Trust for Ornithology will talk about the birds in the estuary, and why it is recognised as being of European importance for the coastal habitats.
Neil is also the national organiser of the Wetland Bird Survey which can be found at www.bto.org.
The talk is being organised by Carmarthenshire County Council working in partnership with Ferryside Village Forum to look at the biodiversity in its area.
It is being funded by a grant from Natural Resources Wales, with the aim of promoting biodiversity in the Ferryside and St Ishmael areas.
Executive board member for biodiversity Cllr Meryl Gravell said: “Carmarthenshire has an amazing coastline, which is of international importance for the range of birds it supports.
“This is a great opportunity to find out more about the birds that you may see in the distance, on the beach, or flying over the waves.”
Everyone is welcome to attend the event, contact Mike Evans on 01267 267147
