Lots of rearing activity at the WWT Penclacwydd with the captive, endangered Nene (Branta sandvicensis) having goslings. The self-introduced Moorhen (Gallinula chloropus), Coot (Fulica atra) and Mallard (Anas platyrynchos) all had masses of chicks/ducklings. A Great spotted woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) was also seen clinging to a bird feeder.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
