Pobl yw’r ‘bygythiad mwyaf i’r byd'

Nid oes gan brif wyddonwyr y byd unrhyw amheuaeth bod gweithgarwch dynol yn newid ein hinsawdd. Yn ôl y Panel Rhynglywodraethol ar Newid yn yr Hinsawdd mae’r dystiolaeth yn ‘ddiamwys’ mai gweithgarwch dynol sy’n gyfrifol am y cynhesu sydd wedi digwydd ers dechrau’r oes ddiwydiannol.

Beth ydych chi’n meddwl y dylen ni fod yn ei wneud i daclo’r newid yn yr hinsawdd?

Pa gwestiynau sydd gennych chi?

Mae nifer o ffyrdd y gallwch chi wneud gwahaniaeth. Y cam cyntaf yw deall newid yn yr hinsawdd.

Mae Amgueddfa Cymru a Science Shops Wales yn mynd ag arddangosfa a sgyrsiau ar daith i dynnu sylw at y newid yn yr hinsawdd. I gael rhagor o wybodaeth,

Helo ’na bawb! Gobeithio eich bod chi’n mwynhau gwylio’r camera natur nawr ei fod yn gweithio’n iawn. Mae hi wastad yn brysur wrth y bwydwr adar ar y foment, felly mae yna digon i’ch diddori (neu os ’da’ch chi fel fi, i dynnu’ch sylw bant o’r gwaith!) am oriau. Mae’r bwydydd yn boblogaidd iawn gyda’r titw mawr, y titw las a’r titw penddu yn ogystal â’r llinos werdd, y ji-binc ac aderyn y to. Mae telor y cnau a’r robin goch hefyd yn ymweld yn rheolaidd ond anaml y ceir ymweliad gan y nico neu goch y berllan. Mae’r bwydydd hefyd yn denu’r gwiwerod lleol, ac er eu bod nhw’n ychydig o boendod i’r adar mae’n eithaf difyr gwylio eu hymdrechion acrobatig i gyrraedd y bwyd!

Yr hydref yw’r amser gorau o’r flwyddyn i chwilio am ffwng gan fod llawer o’r sbardunau ffrwytho (y siapau diddorol sydd i’w gweld uwchben y ddaear) yn tyfu ar y foment. Felly ’dwi wedi penderfynu postio lluniau o fadarch a caws lyffant ar y blog yma trwy gydol y tymor. Mwynhewch!

The marine section here at the museum have been exploring the sea floor around Scotland recently. Have a look at the video blog here to see what they were hoping to find on the trip. Check back soon for updates on the weird and wonderful things they actually found.

Firstly, apologies for the larger than usual gap between this posting and my previous blog; I have been very busy! Many aspects of the project are nearing completion and the presence of the woodland project at St Fagans is becoming more and more obvious. So here’s what’s been going on…

The path through the woodland has been dug and the panels will be with us in the next few weeks. I’m very excited about the panels as they have a lot of brilliant hands-on learning displays such as a wind-up arm that plays bird song and a load of models of footprints, feeding remains and droppings of woodland mammals! It looks like the path will be ready sometime in June and it promises to be an excellent addition to the museum.

The website too is near completion and will be live in a couple of weeks. I’m looking forward to watching the birds as they come and go, and am curious as to which species we’ll get visiting our feeders and nest boxes. The pond cam should be a delight too, and I can’t wait to have a go at filming newts!

This week has felt like the first week of summer with temperatures reaching 23 degrees Celsius. I took a group of visitors on a bird walk at 5:30am on Saturday to celebrate international dawn chorus day and it was a great success. As well as resident species we also saw migrants such as Blackcap, and the songs of Chiffchaff have been ringing around since late March. The woods are full of birdsong as the birds sing to mark their territories and attract a mate, and birds with beaks full of nesting material have become a common sight. There has also been a riot of colour in the woods over the past month with the blossoming of spring flowers such as primrose, lesser celandine, wood anemones, garlic mustard and bluebell. The trees too have begun to blossom and grow fresh green leaves and the canopy is getting thicker every day.

That’s it for now, but keep a look out for the website and the woodland path next month!
