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.

Spent Monday and Tuesday at the National Wetlands Centre Wales with level 2 students. Amongst the interesting beasts viewed was a mutant wild Moorhen (Gallinula chloropus) with plumage that probably said 'please eat me' to any passing birds of prey (the presence of people and the captive birds may have offered some protection). A typical Moorhen is shown directly above with the oddity above that.
