Seeing the Changes 580

In Bynea, noted Sea beet (Beta vulgaris), Marsh arrow-grass (Triglochin palustris) and Thrift (Armeria maritima) in flower. Old clams were embedded in the old mud layers revealed in the collapsed river bank. Noted my first Hairy dragonfly (Brachytron pratense) of the year there. In Loughor, spotted a Phyllobius pomaceus beetle on the Nettles.
