Seeing the Changes 1707

Just entering October in Loughor. Milkcap toadstools in evidence. The flowerings seem to be going on longer. On a 1k walk, noted Common daisy (Bellis perennis); Yarrow (Achillea millefolium); Dandelion (Taraxacum sp); Hedge bindweed (Calystegia sepium); Redshank (Polygonum persicaria); Red campion (Silene dioica); Common fleabane (Pulicaria dysenterica); Smooth sowthistle (Sonchus oleraceus); Parsley water dropwort (Oenanthe lachenalii); Meadow buttercup (Ranunculus acris) and Creeping thistle (Cirsium arvense). There was even a Seven-spot ladybird (Coccinella 7-punctata) exploring the Yarrow.
