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.

Seeing the Changes 1816
A much more effective moth trap in my Loughor garden last night. Initially, it looked as if the catch consisted of tiny beetles and flies. Under the egg boxes, however, there was an unidentified carpet moth, a plume moth (Emmelina monodactyla); a Brown china-mark (Elophila nymphoeata); a Galium carpet (Epirrhoe galiata); 4 Willow beauties (Peribatodes rhomboidaria); a Great brocade (Eurois occulata), 2 Large yellow underwings (Noctua pronuba) and 8 Heart and darts (Agrostis exclamationalis) in both dark and light versions.
