Seeing the Changes 998










More stuff at Oxwich with a Dune waxcap (Hygrocybe conicoides) fungus and flowering Purging flax (Linum catharticum). There was lots of material in fruit including Crab apple (Malus sylvestris); Burnet rose (Rosa pimpinellifolia) and Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia). A day-flying Silver 'Y' moth (Autographa gamma) explored whilst a male Common blue butterflt (Polyommatus icarus) hung around hopefully. The Six-spot burnet moth (Zygaena filipendulae) larvae pupated and a hunting wasp (Ammophila subulosa) was busy in the dunes.
