Once more, the standard of entries was excellent and both of the judges, Sue Mabberley, from the Countryside Council for Wales and Jeff Curtis, an experienced local naturalist, commented on how hard it was to select the winners.

 

The prizes for the winners of each category will be presented during the Grand Parade at the Vale Show on the 15th August and details of all the short-listed entries will be displayed in the Council Pavillion. Our congratulations to all those who entered on their outstanding contributions to local wildlife conservation.
