Seeing the Changes 1763

Fauna and flora were busy on the cliff walk between Caswell and Langland. Flowers included Three-cornered leek (Allium triquetrum); Rockcinquefoil (Potentilla rupestris); Carling thistle (Carlina vulgaris); Sun spurge (Euphorbia helioscopia); possible Purple toadflax (Linaria purpurea); Gorse (Ulex europaeus); Sweet violet (Viola odorata) and Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa). The critters were mainly small, single, ground-nesting bees and wasps on the soil banks along the path.
