Seeing the Changes 31












The Purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) is blooming in Gorseinon and the Marbled white (Melanargia galathea) and Ringlet (Anthantopus hyperantus) butterflies are active in this area. The Gatekeeper (Pyronia tithonus) butterfly is seen in Loughor. The Large-flowered evening primrose (Oenothera erythrosepaia) is in flower and the Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) has green berries in Bynea. The introduced Butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii) is in blossom and profuse green fruit of the Bramble (Rubus fruticosus), Hawthorn (Cratageus monogyna) and Elder (Sambucus nigra) are apparent in Loughor and Bynea. Strange fungi appear in my garden in Loughor.
