The Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) twig in Loughor is green for go! Apple (Malus domestica) is in blossom in that locality along with Black medick (Medicago lupulina) and Yellow oxalis (Oxalis corniculata). Ground nesting bees in my garden were revealed as Dasypoda altercator. The Honey bee (Apis mellifera) was busy on Dandelion here. The introduced Lilac (Syringa vulgaris), the Field maple (Acer campestre) and Elder (Sambucus nigra) are in leaf and in flower in Bynea. The Bumble bee Bombus lapidarius was active here on Red clover and a hunting spider on the water surface.
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.
