Mumbles - Bracelet Bay - Clyne Valley walk

Yesterday Tom walked to Mumbles to look for end of season Autumn ladies tresses- sadly an unsuccessful hunt, probably due to mowing/rabbits/weather. He then went to Bracelet Bay to try and see some Med Gulls so the walk wasn't wasted... unsuccessfully. On the coast however there was a large ivy bush covered in Ivy Bees. He then walked back via the Clyne Valley to look for fungi- nice to have some more unusual ones! Plus he found some jam pots and a possible tip.
