Disturbance caused by uncontrolled dogs and........

I would like to add my two-penneth worth to the current discussions regarding uncontrolled dogs being allowed to disturb flocks of birds at Ynyslas. I am extremely annoyed by dog walkers who let their dogs run amok. I speak as a dog owner when I say it is completely unacceptable. But the jet-skis, quad-bikes and boy racers churning up the sand at this so called nature reserve also give me cause for annoyance and despair. Visit at any time during the holiday season and it is likely that you will see uncontrolled people damaging and disturbing the environment.
I have even seen shooters right on the water's edge at Aberleri.
Well done Elfyn and Derek for encouraging us to help gather evidence so that the police can prosecute, but is it a nature reserve or isn't it?
If it is, it's about time those in charge took the lead and started doing something to discourage such behaviour.
