It's odd the things you run across (literally)! Whilst jogging along the cycle track running along Swansea Bay, I found the above neatly removed pair of wings. Looks as if a Carrion crow has picked a pigeon clean.
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.

This looks familiar. I'm sure I've seen this kind of thing on a New Zealand beach - crabs the scavengers I'd guess.

Crabs would be a bit far from the location in my case but interesting to see how little attention that the wings get on bird carcasses. They are mainly feathers, bones and sinew.
