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.

Moth trapped in Loughor last night. A much reduced catch. There were 6 Willow beauty (Peribatoides rhomboidaria), along with numerous micros. There were single examples of Dot moth (Melanchra persicariae) and Buff arches (Habrosyne pyritoides). The only new species, for the year, was a male, second generation, Early thorn (Seleria dentata).
