For the last five years I have driven
past a collection of sad-looking teddy bears strapped to a tree in Gorseinon, which
mark the spot of a fatal accident. Over time the teddies have been colonised by
bryophytes and not wishing to be disrespectful I have put aside my natural
curiosity to take a closer look. However, as the shrine has not been tendered
for several years, today my conscience allowed me to take a look. This little
community of memorial mosses included Bryum
capillare, Ceratodon purpureus, Microlejeunea ulicina, Orthotrichum affine, O.
diaphanum, Syntrichia laevipila & Zygodon conoideus.
