🐣 Excited to share our new paper in @globalchangebio.bsky.social ! Using @euring.bsky.social ringing data, we investigated “Phenological plasticity and its temperature-related drivers in common songbirds across Europe.” #Ornithology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

New paper out about elevational shifts in European birds lead by @josephinecouet.bsky.social: "Solar Radiation Affects Bird Distributions but Not Elevational Shifts in European Mountains" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @emmamarjakangas.bsky.social @andreasantangeli.bsky.social @ebcc.info

🚨 2nd master’s project! Interested in bird migration & genomics? 🧬🐦 Use whole-genome data to trace the recent colonization of Ouessant Island by Blue Tits and explore how irruptive migratory events can shape colonization dynamics. Please share! #ornithology www.vogelwarte.ch/de/wir/mitar...

We have a new paper out on the genetic vs. environmental drivers of cognition along an urban gradient: doi.org/10.1007/s100... @lauragervais.bsky.social @dhanyabharath.bsky.social @annecharmantier.bsky.social @denisreale.bsky.social #inhibitorycontrol #greattits #animalcognition

Great new paper shows that using knowledge from non-English language journals can strengthen global biodiversity databases. Including info from Brazilian journals increased species & population coverage & reduced uncertainty in population trends besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Very glad to see the second chapter of my PhD published in JEB and feel honored that it has been picked as this month's issue "Editor's choice" and cover image! It's been a long and important team effort leading up to these results!

Our new OA paper is out: dx.doi.org/10.1111/ele.... | Ecology Letters | #ornithology Using @euring.bsky.social Constant Effort Site data spanning 12 countries across Europe we explore geographic and temporal variation in synchrony in counts, productivity and survival rates.

Another birding paper! 🐦Where do the Nearctic landbirds that show up in Europe each autumn come from? We usually assume they come from NE populations, pushed off course by bad weather - but is that the whole story? #ornithology 1/3 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Whereas first arrival has advanced over the long-term study, first laying hasn't (and the same holds true when we look at the averages). Still, 2025 is a fairly early year, as there are only 8 years with an earlier first egg versus 23 with a later first egg. #phenology #seabirds

Birding paper! In the last Dutch Birding issue, we published a detailed paper on the ID of Great Egret taxa in non-breeding plumage. We analyzed photos of hundreds of individuals to find key criteria distinguishing the four taxa. A short illustrated summary can be found in this thread. #birding

Two hybrid Coenonympha species inherited most of their genome from one parent species but prefer mating with the other! By analyzing chemical profiles, we show that non-random trait sorting likely drives reproductive isolation, fueling hybrid speciation @pdvsky.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/jeb/...

New preprint w/ @lmchev.bsky.social 🐦 How can we infer breeding phenology and reproductive success from bird counts or captures? We developed a model linking juvenile proportion in populations to reproductive timing and success. ecoevorxiv.org/repository/v...

In our latest preprint, we showcase how to use a phylogenetic meta-analysis of variance to test evolutionary hypotheses across species. We collected data for 172 birds (314 populations) to test patterns of stabilising selection and canalisation for wing length. 🔗 doi.org/10.32942/X2P...

species are on the move in many places due to climate change we wrote a paper arguing that we need to focus more on the *types* of movements we are seeing, as true range shifts have really different consequences from say range expansions led by Jed Brodie; www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

For my first post here, I’m happy to share our new paper just published in @ibisjournal.bsky.social Thanks to a great team effort, we made a small step forward in the study of Siberian vagrants in Europe and clarified the status of two (pseudo) vagrants: the YBW & the Sib Chiffchaff. Some results 🧵

📖This issue features our Calow-Grace review, by @annecharmantier.bsky.social and team! The review evaluated the peer-reviewed literature for studies that measured and compared natural selection in urban versus non-urban habitats🏙️ Read it here👇 buff.ly/3VthUxB 🧵2/3 🧪🌍

I'm happy to share (again) our work on phenological plasticity along anthropisation gradients in blue and great tits, the first paper of my PhD 🐦@cefemontpellier 👀 more coming soon besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

HUGE thanks go to the many fieldstaff that have contributed to this effort. Stay tuned for much more from our programme! Are you a bander and interested in joining in the field? these data? tropical montane birds? contact me! 5/5 #ornithology @ibisjournal.bsky.social
