Seeing the Changes 316

In Loughor, my bird feeder was visited by an acrobatic Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus). At the National Botanical Gardens Wales, White water-lily (Nymphaea alba) was joined by Flowering rush (Butomus umbellatus) and Monkey flower (Mimulus guttatus). A Grass eggar moth (Lasiocampa trifolii) was also spotted. It was a day for swarming Black garden ants (Lasius niger) and Honey bees (Apis mellifera).
