A Plume moth (Emmelina monodactyla) visited in Loughor. The larvae of the Cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae) were found munching Ragwort in Bynea where the Pineapple mayweed (Chamomilla suaveolens) and Cow parsley (Anthriscus sylvestris) put in an appearance. There was also a fungus after the heavy rain there. In Swansea, Hemp agrimony (Eupatorium cannabinum) was fully in bloom and Red goosefoot (Chenopodium rubrum) coming into flower.
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.
