NEW JOB in #ornithology with @RSPBScience to oversee research in #Wales with #seabirds and #waders: buff.ly/qkTVU6m

Such awesome #seabirds - one of ~430 Storm-petrels ringed in the Nólsoy colony last night w/ @jasonwalczak.bsky.social @trevormaclaurin.bsky.social @anneausems.bsky.social, plus one UK-ringed bird. No tapes used, just one 18-metre mist net - the colony is quite dense!

New #substack! Week two of #fieldwork in the Faroes for this year's Storm-petrel research season. Transects in vertical boulder scree, night-time ringing activities and some updates from the nestbox monitoring as the incubation gets underway... bardseyben.substack.com/p/like-a-fai...

📢New blog post is out on the Seabird Tracking Database Jonathan Rutter describes the distinct behaviours of Black-browed Albatross whilst they follow fishing vessels ➡️ tinyurl.com/BBAfollowves... Full paper here: doi.org/10.1111/1365...

Looking like a poor season for #Puffins in the #Faroes from local accounts and observations so far - lots of adults still feeding young chicks which should have fledged by this time of year, many dead chicks in the colony and very low numbers in general :( any others finding similar? #seabirds

"Commuting in crosswinds and foraging in fast winds: the foraging ecology of a flying fish specialist" 💨🐦🐟 New @iomarinescience.bsky.social research out now in @royalsocietypublishing.org: doi.org/10.1098/rspb... 📸 @robinfreeman.bsky.social 🧪🌍🪶

The first paper of my PhD (and my first first-author paper!) is out now in Marine Biology 🌊 🎆 We tracked snow petrels in a season of extreme weather and little sea ice in east Antarctica❄️ read more on our #ANTSIE webpage here: www.antsie.webspace.durham.ac.uk/2025/06/06/snow-petrel-tracking/

NEW PAPER relevant for #ornithology provides guidance how to interpret #bioacoustics indices to characterize populations such as #seabirds. Paper is here: buff.ly/phErViS ShinyApp is here: buff.ly/IechtSX

I really enjoyed watching this short film about Prof. Tim Birkhead’s long-term study of guillemots on Skomer island. What a legacy, arising from a relentless commitment to careful long-term monitoring.

Don't forget to record your HM sightings on our HM Mapper app available via Coreo (not Google Play Store etc..) 😊 housemartinconservation.com/house-martin...
