Creeping cinquefoil (Potentilla reptans), Cultivated apple (Malus domestica) and Alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum) were blooming in Loughor. In Bynea, noted Bluebells (Endymion non-scripta) and Field rose (Rosa arvensis). In Penclacwydd, Red campion (Silene dioica) and Greater stitchwort (Stellaria holostea). In that last location, many of the Hawthorn had tented colonies of small Lackey moth (Malacosoma neustria) larvae. In Loughor, visited by a Shield bug (Picromerus bidens). In Bynea, a Viviparous lizard (Zootoca vivipara) was flattened on the cycle path.
