In Loughor, noted the blooming of Herb Bennet (Geum urbanum). Then in Funtington, West Sussex, spotted Common mallow (Malva sylvestris); Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea); White dead-nettle (Lamium album); Green alkanet (Pentaglottis sempervirens); Field mouse-ear (Cerastium arvense); Lucerne (Medicago sativa) and Common lime (Tilia vulgaris) all in flower. The lime also had wasp or sawfly galls.
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.
