House martins (Delichon urbica) have arrived to build their nests under the eaves of the Pavilion changing rooms of Swansea University. The poor birds used to be able to freely collect mud for construction from the sides of the dirt running track but, with the construction of the all-weather track, now have to search more widely.
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.
