It is still cold but brighter. In Bynea, Red campion (Silene dioica), Red clover (Trifolium pratense), Greater celadine (Chelidonium majus), Corn gromwell (Buglossoides arvensis), Ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea) and Thale cress (Arabidopsis thaliana). Yellow meadow ants (Lasius flavus) were also active in this area. In Loughor, Tawny mining bees (Andrena fulva) were busy digging, a Plume moth (Emmelina monodactyla) visited the light outside and a Large white (Pieris brassicae) patrolled the garden.
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.
