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.

Not Seeing Red?
The UK is removing the final countries from its travel red list (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/oct/28/eu-gives-go-ahead-nhs-covid-pass-proof-full-vaccination). The countries to be removed from the UK's red list include Columbia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Haiti, Panama, Peru and Venezuela. That means that nobody, arriving from abroad, will have to quarantine (at their own expense) in English airport hotels. The UK are also about to recognise 12 more vaccines (to determine who they will regard as fully vaccinated). The country can now fully relax. Immensa PCR tests will tell us if any new Covid variants are entering these islands?
