Beschrijving

Apart from a site which houses a collection of captive swans, geese and ducks, Llanelli WWT (part of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust) also gives access to the larger Millennium Wetlands area with lakes, scrapes and woods. Wintering wildfowl include Middelste Zaagbek, Brilduiker, Wintertaling, Smient, Pijlstaart, Rotgans and Wilde Zwaan. Waders may include Scholekster, Wulp, Tureluur, Zwarte Ruiter, Groenpootruiter, Goudplevier, Zilverplevier, Kanoet and Rosse Grutto. Grutto are present all year round. Waterral and Bokje also winter but are secretive. Other waders seen on passage include Regenwulp, Kemphaan, Oeverloper, Witgat, Bosruiter, Krombekstrandloper and Kleine Strandloper. October to April is the best time to visit Llanelli with peak waterfowl numbers in January.
