In Bynea, Tansy (Tanacetum vulgare) was fully in flower. The hips had appeared on the Burnet rose (Rosa pimpinellifolia). There was a leaf beetle (possibly Chrysolina geminata) on the Great willowherb and the flying ants were active (also in Oxwich) for several days until the recent torrential rains.
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.
