More late flowers and critters on my route from Loughor to Penclacwdd via Bynea. In addition to flowers noted yesterday, spotted Great mullein (Verbascum thapsis); Common toadflax (Linaria vulgaris); Common field speedwell (Veronica persica); Sea Mayweed (Matricaria maritima); Common evening primrose (Oenothera biennis); Greater celendine (Chelidonium majus); Hoary cinquefoil (Potentilla argentea); Water mint (Mentha aquatica); Ox-eye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare); Common mallow (Malva sylvestris) and Ramping fumitory (Fumaria capreolata). Bittersweet (Solanum dulcamara) was in berry. Several Common darters (Sympetrum striolatum) were flying. Still some Speckled wood (Parage aegeria tircis) and Small white (Artogeia rapae) butterflies about.
