Seeing the Changes 1579

Lots of activity. In Langland, Sweet violet (Viola odorata) and Sea spurge (Euphorbia paralias) were in bloom. Alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum) was flowering in Loughor. A mining bee, probably Andrena haemorrhoa was active on the cliffs of Langland. My first Small tortoiseshell butterfly (Aglais urticae) basked in Loughor and lambs (Ovis aries) gambolled in Gowerton.
