Twm Elias was not giving me the thumbs up, he was explaining something to camera as he talked to Iolo Williams on the S4C's "Natur y Gwanwyn" - a Welsh version of Springwatch.
A leisurely ramble around Holyhead's Breakwater Country Park, with Anglesey's Wildlife Trust members, 14.00hrs.-16.00hrs., meet in pay and display carpark LL65 1YG, all welcome, details:- S. Perry 01248 713608,
the site is said to be "surprisingly rich" in birds, butterflies, dragonflies and orchids,
and has featured in both "Derek the BBC Wales' Weatherman Walking" and Iolo in Countyfile's series.
"Tyfais i fyny yng nghysgod Mynydd y Berwyn ac mae gen i atgofion melys iawn o’r ardal. Nes i gychwyn crwydro’r rhosydd gyda Bitw fy nghi yn gwmni pan o’n i’n fachgen bach ac mae’n siŵr mai dyna wnaeth danio fy niddordeb ym myd natur. Bydda i dal yn mynd yno nawr pan dwi isho dianc a gweld neb. O Ebrill i Orffennaf bydda i’n neilltuo un diwrnod bob mis er mwyn treulio amser yno yn mwynhau’r bywyd gwyllt – waeth beth bynnag arall sydd i’w wneud."
To borrow a phrase used by Iolo Williams of Springwatch to describe the Farne Islands. They certainly lived up to that name yesterday. Having spent a couple of hours photographing Guillemots, Terns, Razorbills, Shags and of course Puffins on and around the Islands we were heading back to Seahouses when a small pod of Bottlenose Dolphins appeared and played around the boats heading back in. What a fantastic end to the day. I was amazed that I got any worthwhile photos. Standing on a moving and rocking boat while hand holding a 400mm lens trying to second guess where they would surface was tricky to say the least!

Pryd o fwyd o fy mhlentyndod... Gwichiaid. Llawer o waith i gadw mi yn brysyr ac yn ddistaw. Dywedir y geiriadur bod tarddiad yr enw yn golygu: plygu; troi; cordeddu. Oherwydd siap y gragen, neu siap yr anifail ar ol tynnu o'r gragen? A dim byd i wneud a sŵn gwichian.
Bwyd mor, yn y gorffenol, bwyd pobol tlawd... Mae Iolo Goch yn pardduo y Gwyddelod yn eu linell:
"Gwyddal amal gocs ith blant" - Pobol bwyta cocos, tlawd. Ond y peth ydi fod bwyd mor, o unrhyw fath, yn llawn daioni.
As a child, I would collect these, and my Nain would cook them, and then we would take a pin to pull them from the shell... a lot of work... I suspect, to keep me quiet? My Nain would know if her neighbour was in some financial difficulty, as her sons would be collecting coal sacks full of winkles, on every tide. If you see someone doing this, don't bother them, it's backbreaking work, against the clock.
These winkles were very tasty, my Nain, doused them in malt vinegar, but my wife, in balsamic. And i boiled them in lager. After collecting them you wash them in cold water, then leave them to stand in salted water for half an hour or so, then boil them for 3 to 6 minutes depending on how many are in the pan, other methods on the web. There is a technique to winkling them out with a pin, you should be able to figure it out. Get as many children as possible, who can be trusted with a pin, to help with this. A safety pin, or a paper clip, is a good choice, easier to hold. There is no R in the month, my Nain, only applied this rule to mussels and cockles. I had not eaten these since my childhood - it was on seeing the little doors on the shells, the operculum, all over my fingers and the table, that brought the memories back.
1st August 2016 at Ham Marquee, Sidmouth.
Sidmouth Folk Week.
Country: Britain - Wales. Style: Welsh / InterCeltic Folk.
Lineup: Jamie Smith (v/piano accordion), Oliver Wilson-Dickson (fiddle), Ron Juppy (g), Matt Downer (b/bass g), Iolo Whelan (d).
This group started out in 1999 as Mabon playiing tunes of mainly Welsh music. The acoustic quartet included Jamie Smith and Iolo Whelan, plus the former's father and latter's brother. Then came Whelan's move to a drum kit, the adding of the bass, Smith taking up singing, a focus on Smith's compositions and the change of name. They call their music "InterCeltic" to acknowlege influnces from various countries, though they carry on doing some songs in Welsh as well as English.
