Lots of changes since I was last at Swansea University, Bay Campus. Kidney vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria); Sand catchfly (Silene conica); Marsh hawksbeard (Crepis paludosa); Prickly sow-thistle (Sonchus asper); Common field speedwell (Veronica persica); Early forgetmenot (Myosotis ramosissima); Marsh violet (Viola palustris); Wild pansy (Viola tricolor)and Common storksbill (Erodium cicutarium) in flower. There were also fungi on the dunes and mating Spotted crane-fly (Nephrotoma appendiculata).
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.
