Sweden sees silent forests as sanctuaries from a noisy world. In a cottage nestled deep in a forest, three couples recently spent four days whispering and without phones as part of a campaign warning about the dangers of noise pollution and promoting quiet Scandinavia u.afp.com/Snsj

🦇A great excerpt from "The Bats of Alberta" (a 20min documentary on our YT channel). Interestingly, this Little Brown would always show up in the same spot, same cave wall every year - so the bios would look for him. Great story of longevity in bats! #TheOldOne #subscribe youtu.be/ptcJfZyH6-U?...

givebutter.com/BC-Melissa-R... Trees are burned and stripped of their leaves by the intense winds. Coastlines destroyed. Many areas affected by floods and landslides. All of this affects the habitats of Jamaica's precious birds. 33 species are endemic to the island. Please give! #Birds 🪶 #Birdsky

Bravo to our friend, Roland, of @calgaryrasc.bsky.social . He's done such a beautiful job with the local radar images of birds migrating in Alberta. Thank you, Roland for this effort and for sharing it!

🦇Artificial bat roosts can overheat during heatwaves, forcing bats to lose dangerous amounts of water to stay cool. Some bat box designs could cause lethal dehydration - even in northern regions. Roost design must consider both bat physiology & microclimate. journals.biologists.com/jeb/article-...

It’s moulting time for a lot of birds so that means it’s magpie Skeksis time at the bath 😂🤣 #birds

Report highlights intersections between disappearance of Indigenous women and human trafficking in Canada. Hear more on APTN News Brief:

STOP with the crow puns! We cannot handle the cuteness!🥰

The environment took a beating this week, and so did we: construction in the Everglades, the Supreme Court restricted EPA authority, and even California rolled back some of its landmark environmental protections. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean

The only thing I like about our low insect population this year is that I can sit out on the beach at sunset. My older bachelor neighbour ended up joining me and we had a lovely evening watching the sunset. Hoping for rain soon, so our birds have more bugs to eat.

New blog: new paper on science denial. Combatting denialism depends on community approaches to scicomm. Experts need to be supported by academic and research institutions, policymakers, and journalists #academicsky #commsky wp.me/pF3Q3-TP

Two days remain to comment on the US FWS and NMFS rule change that undermines the Endangered Species Act (ESA). This proposal rescinds the definition of “harm,” limiting protections to actions that directly injure or kill listed species, leaving their habitats vulnerable. Please submit comments! 🧪
