In Crymlyn burrows, the combination of heavy rain and sun brought out Common earthball (Scleroderma citrinum) fungi. On the dunes, Rock samphire (Crithmum maritinum) and Carline thistle (Carlina vulgaris) flowered. Mountain ash (Sorbus acuparia) and Dog rose (Rosa canina) fruited. Robber-flies were locked in a deadly embrace.
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.
