After complaining about butterfly dearths yesterday, I did spot a Comma (Polygonia c-album) in Bynea. I also briefly saw a Small tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae) in the same location- it appeared to be a bit smaller than usual. A Garden chafer (Phyllopertha horticola) landed on my drying jeans in Loughor.
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.
