We visited the Llanelli Wetland Centre which is part of the WWT.  The area was originally the site of steel, tin and coal industries, but following their demise a waterfowl haven was created, which was opened in 1991.  In addition a further wetlands development was opened in 2000 and brings the land back to what it would have been like pre the industrial era.

   

There's plenty of educational elements, including this 'Water Vole City'



And there's a woven hibernaculum for the grass snakes to lay their eggs



There are lots of different ducks and geese:

   

   

And there are flamingos

   

In a beautiful setting



And there are a number of hides giving excellent views of the area
