Wildlife lovers get your wellies at the ready!

Enjoy a mud treatment with a difference at the National Wetland Centre Wales next month.

Pull on your wellies to take part in a mud safari taking you to some of the less accessible parts of the reserve during low tide.

Walk on parts of the stunning reserve rarely explored on foot and find out what wildlife lives there with the help of the warden.

The terrain can be tough in places so the event on the weekend of Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 May is only suitable for those with a good level of fitness.

The event costs £5 an adult and children are free, the start time will be confirmed nearer to the date.

Wake up with the bird world during a special event at the National Wetland Centre Wales.

Join the Dawn Chorus event for a guided walk listening to the first bird song of the day at the Burry Inlet.

The event on Saturday 1 May starts at 6am and finishes with a full English breakfast. Adults cost £15 and children £10.

To book a place on either event contact Eleanor Keatley on 01554 741087.
