Seeing the Changes 66






More unseasonally warm weather with the Dandelion (Taraxacum vulgaria) in flower throughout Loughor, Bynea and Pennard. In Pennard, they were being visited by an early Drone-fly (Eristalis tenax). Another, more typically coloured, Spring crocus (Crocus albiflorus) was in flower in Loughor but probably another garden escapee! Also in Loughor, Chickweed wintergreen (Trientalis europaea) was in flower near the river and at, Bynea, the Alder (Alnus glutinosa) was full of green catkins. The semi-wild Gower ponies also decided to cross the Loughor river today.
