Seeing the Changes 102










In Oxwich, there was lots of orchids, including the Pyramidal orchid (Anacamptis pyramidalis). There were also masses of Yellow rattle (Rhinanthus minor), Eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis), Annual stonecrop (Sedum annum) as well as budding Biting stonecrop (Sedum acre) on the dunes. In addition to Common blue (Polyommatus icarus), there was lots of Small heath (Coenonympha pamphilus) butterfly activity as well as the striking presence of the Chrysomela populi beetle and Bush cricket nymphs. Lots of Common wave (Cabera exanthemata) moth on the rattle.
