Amrywiaeth o dan eich traed: pryfed Pen-lan
Ymunwch รข'r entomolegydd Liam Olds am daith dywys i ddarganfod pryfed yng Nghae Ras Pen-lan. Mae'r safle, a oedd yn gae ras o fri yn y 19eg ganrif, bellach yn hafan i fywyd gwyllt.
Archwiliwch yr amrywiaeth o bryfed sy'n ffynnu yma, o wenyn ac ieir bach yr haf i chwilod a chreaduriaid di-asgwrn-cefn eraill, gan fwynhau'r golygfeydd dros Gwm Tawe Isaf a Bae Abertawe ar yr un pryd.
Dyma gyfle perffaith i bobl o bob oed sy'n dwlu ar natur ddarganfod bywyd cudd pryfed yn y man gwyrdd trefol hwn. Mae'n rhaid i blant fod yng nghwmni oedolyn.
Rhaid cadw lle.
Cefnogir y digwyddiad hwn gan gyllid grant Lleoedd Lleol ar gyfer Natur 2025-27, a ddarperir gan Lywodraeth Cymru, a weinyddir gan Gyngor Gweithredu Gwirfoddol Cymru ac a reolir gan Gyngor Abertawe yn Abertawe.
