In Loughor, Rosebay willowherb (Epilobium angustifolium) was flowering. In Bynea, Ragwort (Senecio jacobaea); Ribbed melilot (Melilotus officinalis); Perforate St John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) and Great mullein (Verbascum thapsus) were in bloom. In that location, there were also Blue-tailed damselflies (Ischmura elegans) and a hunting digger wasp (probably Mellinus arvensis).
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.
