Shoresearch Cymru rocky shore surveys October 2021
With the nights drawing in, surveying low tide in daylight around North Wales becomes trickier, so we made the most of the large Spring tides earlier in October, before the clocks turned.
Marsh cinquefoil
Look for the deep magenta, star-shaped flowers of Marsh cinquefoil in marshes, bogs, fens and wetlands in the north, west and east of the UK.
