Yet more flowers. In Bynea, Hemlock water dropwort (Oenanthe crocata); Greater stitchwort (Stellaria holostea); Silverweed (Potentilla anserina) and Common cleavers (Galium aparine) were all in bloom. In Loughor, Smooth sow-thistle (Sonchus oleraceus); Shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris) and Herb Bennet (Geum urbanum) all made appearances.
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.
