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.

Soundtrack For Interesting Times?
The Australian band AC/DC seem to be getting some very diverse 'plays'. The new BBC mini-series 'SAS: Rogue Heroes' prominently featured their 'Highway to Hell' track.

Let's hope that 'Hell's Bells' doesn't prove as popular.
