’S e <strong>an</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> <strong>am</strong> <strong>bad</strong>-al<strong>an</strong> <strong>as</strong> <strong>motha</strong> <strong>an</strong>n <strong>am</strong><br />

A-MACH IS<br />
A–STEACH À UISGE<br />
<strong>Bidh</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hallain a’ fuireach faisg air<br />
uisge agus a’ snàmh is ag ithe lus<strong>an</strong> air na<br />
bruaiche<strong>an</strong>. <strong>Bidh</strong> iad a’ daoibheadh dh<strong>an</strong> uisge<br />
nuair a bhios <strong>an</strong> t-eagal orra.<br />
Fiosrachadh mu L<strong>am</strong>hallain<br />
• Tha bi<strong>an</strong> tiugh orra a bhios a’ glacadh èadhar nuair<br />
a thèid iad fon uisge. Tha <strong>an</strong> èadhar glaiste a’ cumail<br />
<strong>an</strong> uisge fhuar om bodhaige<strong>an</strong> is g<strong>an</strong> cumail blàth.<br />
• Tha clu<strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong> beaga orra agus tha flapa craicinn n<strong>an</strong><br />
clu<strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong> a bhios a’ dùnadh nuair a thèid iad fon uisge<br />
Ach, gu h-<strong>an</strong>n<strong>as</strong>ach, ch<strong>an</strong> eil na l<strong>am</strong>hallain ro<br />
mhath air snàmh<br />
<strong>Bidh</strong> bi<strong>as</strong>t<strong>an</strong> dubha a’ fuireach <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong><br />
uisge is tha òrdag<strong>an</strong> eigeach orra –<br />
coimhead air <strong>an</strong> dealbh is faic a<br />
bheil sin air l<strong>am</strong>hallain.<br />
RADAN NACH ITH<br />
FEÒIL<br />
Bhiodh ‘Ratty’ s<strong>an</strong> leabhar ‘Wind in<br />
the Willows’ ag ithe ceapaire<strong>an</strong> circe<br />
agus ag i<strong>as</strong>gach ach cha bhi l<strong>am</strong>hallain dharìribh<br />
ag ithe i<strong>as</strong>g (no cearc).<br />
<strong>Bidh</strong> iad ag ithe gh<strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong>, duilleag<strong>an</strong>,<br />
freumhaiche<strong>an</strong>, meacain, dìthe<strong>an</strong><strong>an</strong> agus rùsg<br />
iomadh lus ri taobh <strong>an</strong> uisge agus feur<br />
cuideachd. <strong>Bidh</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hallain a’ stòradh biadh sna<br />
tuill aca agus tha iad glè mhe<strong>as</strong>ail air ùbhl<strong>an</strong>.<br />
Lorgaidh l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> ùbhl<strong>an</strong> air <strong>an</strong> tal<strong>am</strong>h<br />
<strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong> gàrradh no ùbhl<strong>an</strong>-fiadhain<br />
agus seòlaidh e thar abhainn<br />
leotha chun <strong>an</strong> tuill aige!<br />
FIOSRACHADH MU<br />
LAMHALLAIN<br />
• Buinidh na l<strong>am</strong>hallain dh<strong>an</strong> aon ghnè ri<br />
luchainn, radain, dearbaile<strong>an</strong> is h<strong>am</strong>staire<strong>an</strong>. Mar<br />
sin tha fiacl<strong>an</strong>-aghaidh fhada aca nach bi a’ sgur a<br />
dh’fhàs ach tha iad a’ cnàmh le bhith <strong>an</strong>-còmhnaidh a’<br />
criomadh.<br />
• Tha iad mun aon mheud ri h<strong>am</strong>stair mòr (12-20cm a dh’fhaid).<br />
• Tha <strong>am</strong> bi<strong>an</strong> aca gle<strong>an</strong>sach donn no dubh (gu h-àraidh <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong><br />
Alba) agus tha pìos<strong>an</strong> geala cuideachd air cuid de l<strong>am</strong>hallain. Tha<br />
earbaill fhionnach orra, rud nach eil air radain.<br />
• <strong>Bidh</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> beò mu dhà bhliadhna.<br />
• Faodaidh àl a bhith aig <strong>an</strong> fheadhainn bhoire<strong>an</strong>n 5 turs<strong>an</strong> sa<br />
bhliadhna eadar <strong>an</strong> Gible<strong>an</strong> agus <strong>an</strong> t-Sultain le 6 bheaga <strong>an</strong>ns<br />
gach àl. Ach ch<strong>an</strong> àbhaist uiread a bhith aca <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong> Alba.<br />
(An obraich thu a-mach cia mheud l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> beag a<br />
dh’fhaodadh a bhith aig aon l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> <strong>an</strong>n <strong>am</strong> bliadhna?)<br />
’S dòcha gu bheil <strong>an</strong> àire<strong>am</strong>h a’ coimhead mòr ach tha<br />
mòr<strong>an</strong> bheathaiche<strong>an</strong> a’ creach n<strong>an</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> mar<br />
a’ chailleach-oidhche, radain, ne<strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong>, a’<br />
chorra-ghritheach, iolaire<strong>an</strong>, mionc,<br />
cait agus fiù ’s èisg mhòra.

LAMHALLAIN SAN DACHAIGH<br />
Gheibhear l<strong>am</strong>hallain air bruaiche<strong>an</strong> aibhne, <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong> sruthain sa mhonadh agus <strong>an</strong>n <strong>am</strong> boglaiche<strong>an</strong>.<br />
Is toigh leotha bruaiche<strong>an</strong> c<strong>as</strong>a le ùir gu leòr ri taobh uisge mall, far <strong>an</strong> dè<strong>an</strong> iad tunaile<strong>an</strong>. <strong>Bidh</strong><br />
na tunaile<strong>an</strong> sin os cionn agus fo ìre <strong>an</strong> uisge. Bheir iad greime<strong>an</strong>n<strong>an</strong> às<br />
<strong>an</strong> tal<strong>am</strong>h lem fiacl<strong>an</strong> làidir nuair a bhios iad a’ cladhach n<strong>an</strong><br />
tunaile<strong>an</strong>. <strong>Bidh</strong> iad a’ putadh na h-ùire à-mach às <strong>an</strong> toll len<br />
c<strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong>. Feumaidh iad cuideachd lus<strong>an</strong> àrda, tiugh, sùghmhor<br />
le duilleag<strong>an</strong> <strong>an</strong> dà chuid ri oir <strong>an</strong> uisge agus <strong>an</strong>ns <strong>an</strong><br />
uisge. Tha na lus<strong>an</strong> a’ toirt biadh dha na l<strong>am</strong>hallain<br />
agus tha iad g<strong>am</strong> falach bho chreachadaire<strong>an</strong>.<br />
A’ CRÌONADH<br />
Chleachd na l<strong>am</strong>hallain a bhith pailt <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong> iomadh<br />
àite <strong>an</strong>n <strong>an</strong> Alba. Tha iad tearc a-nis agus tha <strong>an</strong><br />
àire<strong>am</strong>h fhath<strong>as</strong>t a’ crìonadh.<br />
Carson?<br />
Dh’fhaodadh gur <strong>an</strong>n air sgàth fear, no barrachd, dhe<br />
na h-adhbhar<strong>an</strong> a le<strong>an</strong><strong>as</strong> a chaidh na l<strong>am</strong>hallain à bith<br />
s<strong>an</strong> sgìre AGADSA.<br />
1. Tha <strong>am</strong> mionc math air na l<strong>am</strong>hallain a shealg agus<br />
gheibh <strong>am</strong> mionc boire<strong>an</strong>n a-steach a thuill n<strong>an</strong><br />
l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong><br />
2. Uisge air a thruailleadh<br />
3. Chailleadh lus<strong>an</strong> air bruaiche<strong>an</strong> aibhniche<strong>an</strong> nuair a<br />
chaidh craobh<strong>an</strong> durc<strong>an</strong>ach a chur airson malairt<br />
4. Ch<strong>an</strong> eil lus<strong>an</strong> air bruaiche<strong>an</strong> aibhniche<strong>an</strong> fada gu<br />
leòr oir tha beathaiche<strong>an</strong> bho thuath<strong>an</strong><strong>as</strong><strong>an</strong> g<strong>an</strong><br />
st<strong>am</strong>padh is g<strong>an</strong> ithe<br />
5. Chaidh <strong>an</strong> ùir air bruaiche<strong>an</strong> aibhniche<strong>an</strong> a<br />
chòmhdach le clach<strong>an</strong> is concrait.<br />
N<strong>an</strong> robh thu fhèin nad thuath<strong>an</strong>ach no nad<br />

MIONC<br />
Tha <strong>am</strong> mionc<br />
Ameireag<strong>an</strong>ach na dhragh mòr<br />
dha na l<strong>am</strong>hallain.<br />
Chaidh <strong>am</strong> mionc a thoirt a Bhreatainn<br />

Fhuair iomadh mionc mu sgaoil agus chòrd <strong>an</strong><br />
dùthaich riutha.<br />
Bha l<strong>am</strong>hallain gu math pailt aig <strong>an</strong> àm sin.<br />
Bha iad a’ fuireach ri taobh aibhniche<strong>an</strong><br />
a bu toigh leis a’ mhionc cuideachd. Gu<br />
mì-fhort<strong>an</strong>ach, tha <strong>am</strong> meud ceart<br />

CEANGALAN BITH-IOMADACHD<br />
Tha <strong>an</strong> l<strong>am</strong>hall<strong>an</strong> na phàirt de bhith-iomadachd Alba, (gach<br />
seòrsa beatha, eadar lus<strong>an</strong> is beathaiche<strong>an</strong>, agus far a bheil<br />
iad beò). Gus gun tuig a’ chl<strong>an</strong>n mar a tha gach nì a’ ce<strong>an</strong>gal<br />
