Some of the specimens from last night's moth trap in Loughor. Micros included Yponomeuta cagnagella, a Snout moth, Myelois cribella, Eurrhypara coronata and Agapeta humana. Macros included Willow beauty (Peribatoides rhomboidaria), Double square spot (Xestia triangulum) and Buff arches (Habrosyne pyritoides).
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.
