@cardiffnats.bsky.social
The premier wildlife society for Cardiff. Founded in 1867 with many members accomplishments including the foundation of the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff, The Forest Farm Nature Reserve, Kenfig Nature reserve see https://cardiffnaturalists.org.uk/
As well as the photography they were clearly making a lot of useful Ornithological records, just take a read of this from the CNS transactions in that period and wonder how many we don't find any more

We thought you may like to see these from our archive ..

If you read the 1897 one you can see that there must have been some very short memories back then !

It's a pity that this #fakenews regarding #marconi is still in place with no clarification given that we published evidence that he wasn't first many years ago and that Sir John Gavey beat him by 5 years.

Due to the incredible efforts of Cardiff Nats members we will soon be in a position to release an immense amount of Historical Bird records from the diaries of #Morreysalmon and his birding partner Geoffrey Ingram
