Have you seen the swallows taking a drink from the Slash Pond? Did you know these amazing birds fly thousands of miles from Southern Africa each year to breed in Pembrokeshire? Breathtaking!

''...Despite the protection offered by National Park status, it’s vital to remember that the natural world is the most precious thing we have and we are a part of it. When we work together and make positive changes in our own lives, there is no limit as to what we might accomplish.” - David Attenborough

Today we’re wishing a very Happy 100th Birthday to Sir David Attenborough 🎉🌍

For decades, Sir David has inspired generations to appreciate, protect and fight for the natural world. His voice, storytelling and passion for conservation have helped people across the world see the beauty and fragility of our planet in a completely different way.

A few years ago, Sir David shared these words about the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park:

“The rugged Pembrokeshire Coast is a place of extraordinary complexity and wonder. Unforgettably beautiful and teeming with wildlife spectacles, it is every bit as fragile as it is beautiful. Despite the protection offered by National Park status, it’s vital to remember that the natural world is the most precious thing we have and we are a part of it. When we work together and make positive changes in our own lives, there is no limit as to what we might accomplish.”

As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, we’d like to thank Sir David for a lifetime dedicated to nature conservation, environmental awareness and inspiring positive change. 🌎

Happy Birthday Sir David, from all of us at the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority. 💚
