It has been reported that at least 3 pairs of European white storks have constructed nests of twigs in oak trees on the Knepp estate in West Sussex in a conservation programme (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/apr/26/uk-first-wild-stork-chicks-hatch-centuries). Eggs have been laid and it is hoped that the first chicks to hatch for centuries in this country will emerge. One must caution, however, that eggs were laid last year but they did not hatch.
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.
