Yr Uned Ymchwiliadau Natur yw elfen ymchwiliol newydd Cymru Wyllt — sy'n canolbwyntio ar ddatgelu'r methiannau, y pwysau, a'r mannau dall sy'n achosi colli byd natur yng Nghymru. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bv3...

We’re launching something new. The Nature Investigations Unit is Wild Cymru’s commitment to digging deeper into the issues facing Wales’ wildlife and environment — asking difficult questions, following the evidence, and holding systems to account where needed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjcC...

Rydym wedi ymrwymo i warchod a llais dros fywyd gwyllt yng Nghymru, a bydd ein Huned Ymchwiliadau Natur yn ein helpu i wneud hynny. Dyma beth sydd gan Lywydd Anrhydeddus Wild Cymru, Iolo Williams, i’w ddweud

We're committed to protecting and speaking up for wildlife in Wales, and our Nature Investigations Unit will help us do it. Here's what Wild Cymru Honouree President Iolo Williams has to say. #WildCymru #NatureConservation

Heddiw rydym yn dechrau pennod newydd: Cymru Wyllt / Wild Cymru. Rydym yn credu y gall Cymru fod yn wilder — yn ei thirweddau, ei bywyd gwyllt a’i hysbryd. Nid enw newydd yn unig yw hwn, ond ein gweledigaeth ar gyfer adfer natur. Beth mae Cymru wyllt yn ei olygu i chi? #CymruWyllt

Today we begin a new chapter: Cymru Wyllt / Wild Cymru. We believe Wales can be wilder — in its landscapes, its wildlife and its spirit. This isn’t just a new name. It’s our vision for nature recovery. What does a wilder Wales mean to you? #CymruWyllt #NatureRecovery

Here is our open letter to the new NRW Chair asking him what he will do to reverse the decline in nature. He says his priority is to ‘position NRW as a national leader in nature recovery’. We want to hold him and NRW to those words. Here's our letter: www.natureconservation.wales/news/

Very atmospheric (c.f. rainy) day out in the Rhondda doing water vole surveys for Lost Peatlands sites at Mynyndd Ton and then Cwmparc. Great to have @inccymru.bsky.social with us as well for the day. Been a while since I’ve been in the Cwm and it’s fantastic, despite the razor sharp tussock sedge

Aren't Water Voles wonderful. This Water Vole was filmed going about its business on the River Thaw in South Wales. They were reintroduced to the river last year, after a 20 year absence. Surveys this year suggests that the population is doing well and the Water Vole are exploring new habitats.

Another wonderful day at our Llwyndewi Nature Reserve, this time Bracken Bruising to help restore the grassland habitat and to create nesting plots for Nightjar next year. Huge thank you to all the volunteers from Bridgend College Conservation Volunteers. Huge help, as always.

Cattle are back at Llwyndewi Nature Reserve. Wonderful evening spent at the reserve watching these guys settling in to their new home. Cattle and conservation grazing are so important to Welsh Wildlife. Huge thank you to Toby our grazier.

We are very happy to welcome Freya Smith to the INCC Team. Freya will be with us up until October and will be working on our upland Water Vole Project. Freya has volunteered with INCC for a number of years at our nature reserve and our various farm restoration projects. bit.ly/4eymyTy

Working for wildlife in the the Amman Valley is incredibly rewarding. Working with lots of landowners on different conservation projects. Only 2 occupied Barn Owl boxes yesterday, plus a Tawny. We also saw lots of meadows and flower rich pastures. Its an amazing place. Thanks to Cedwyn and Dafydd.

Our second collaboration with the INCC is a wonderfully evocative story highlighting the protection of endangered water voles in Wales. Find out more about the project by visiting our website! clothcat.com/projects/hel... @inccymru.bsky.social #natureconservation #watervole #blender #clothcat

To celebrate the success of our upland Water Vole project, we've produced this wonderful (day in a life) animation with @clothcatstudio.bsky.social.

We are really pleased to welcome Laura Griffiths to the INCC team. Laura will be part of the upland Water Vole project, undertaking surveys, working with volunteers and carrying out research to help inform future water vole conservation in Wales. Welcome aboard Laura.

We've been working with a landowner in the VoG over the past 2 years, helping make the farm wildlife friendly, whilst still remaining a financially viable. Our arable margins have lots of wildflowers & insects. Plus we got to see Kestrels, Skylarks, Brown Hares & Yellowhammers. It was a good day.

Great day on the Nature Reserve with @savebutterflies.bsky.social pulling Himalayan Balsam. The reserve is quite remote so no idea how Balsam got there, but as its at the very top of the catchment we are trying our best to get rid of it. Huge thank you to all the volunteers for helping out.

There's not too many better ways to spend a Friday than wandering around @cefngarthenor. Great to see how the wildlife and habitats are responding to the nature friendly management over the past few years.

Lovely day at Bad Wolf Productions Cardiff, looking at the amazing work they have done to make their grounds a bit more wildlife friendly. Simple changes to verge cutting regimes have made a huge difference. Well done and thank you to all involved.

We are already coming to the end of the Marsh Fritillary flight season in our rearing pens. Still a dozen or so butterflies left. Its sad to see, but its nice knowing that they have laid thousands of eggs ready to support the local population in South Wales.

Some wonderful Willow Tit news from the nature reserve. Big thank you to @wildhorizons.bsky.social @birdsinwales.bsky.social & Ynni Sir Gâr for the support. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/stop-the-w...

Its a great start to our Pied Flycatcher monitoring in the Amman Valley this year. We have around 30 nest after the second week of checks and hopefully there is time for a few more. The monitoring this year has been made possible by all the landowners who we work with and some brilliant volunteers.

Fantastic weekend at Cefn Garthenor with students and volunteers. Lots of wildlife spotting and recording. Lots of quadrats for our long-term monitoring. Dormouse boxes installed and we even dug a linear pond. Big thank you to all the students and volunteers who made it such a great few days. Thanks
