National Park Warden

It looks like another lovely warm, dry, sunny weekend ahead, so we're asking everyone please: Do not light fires and no BBQs. Keep ewes, lambs and ground nesting birds safe by keeping dogs on a lead. Take your litter home. Have a great weekend.

👀 Have you seen a Curlew? Let the Curlew Connections team know by emailing curlew@beacons-npa.gov.uk Now is a vital time for recording Curlew territories! The more sightings we collect, the better we can understand and protect their population here in Bannau Brycheiniog.

Please take extra care when out and about this Easter. We have had a number of big fires over the last few days.
