Seeing the Changes 267







The first Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum) was in flower in Loughor along with 'escaped' Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis). The candleabra-like flowers of Horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastaneum) were also starting to appear. In Port Eynon, Ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea); Sea stock (Matthiola sinuata) and Cuckoo flower (Cardamine pratensis) were all in bloom. A black European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) romped in the sunshine.
