@4AfonLIFE Great news for fish! 🐟💚

We are improving access for migrating fish underneath Llanfoist Bridge this summer. The step created by the bridge apron is a barrier to fish, especially weaker swimming species such as shad and lamprey, it also delays salmon and trout, and slows down their migration journeys.

Spring cheer on St David’s Day. Today we celebrate the patron saint of Wales and the first day of spring. Happy St David Day! Welsh translation. Hwyl y gwanwyn ar Ddydd Gŵyl Dewi. Heddiw rydym yn dathlu nawddsant Cymru a diwrnod cyntaf y gwanwyn. Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus!

💦🐸Mae Diwrnod Gwlyptiroedd y Byd yn cael ei ddathlu bob blwyddyn ar 2 Chwefror i godi ymwybyddiaeth am wlyptiroedd. Mae gwlyptiroedd Cymru yn gartref i amrywiaeth anhygoel o rhywogaeth. Ar ben hynny, maen nhw’n cloi carbon, yn storio dŵr, ac yn cynnig cyfleoedd am hamdden.

💦🐸World Wetlands Day is celebrated each year on 2 February to raise awareness about wetlands. Wetlands in #Wales host an incredible diversity of species. What’s more they lock up carbon, store & purify water & provide recreation & tourism opportunities. #WorldWetlandsDay2026
