A Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) gathered caterpillars in Loughor and a Greenfinch (Carduelis chloris) had a rest on the wire in Bynea. Also lots of bird activity around Burry holms including Rock pipit (Anthus petrosis) on the rocks and Stonechat (Saxicola torquata) in the dunes. The brambles also revealed Whitethroat (Sylvia communis) and a possible Lesser whitethroat (Sylvia curruca). A busy Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) hovered over Spaniard rocks and flew over with captured rodents.
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.
