What a cool finding! Eurasian Scops owls bring live worm snakes to the nest, and snakes feed on insect parasites in the nest, therefore increasing owl hatchling success! 🐍↔️🦉 #ornithology

super cool study found human artifacts in Bearded vulture nests, incl. "weaponry like a crossbow bolt and wooden lance, decorated sheep leather, and parts of a slingshot....a shoe made from twigs and grass is ~675-years-old." link to paper: doi.org/10.1002/ecy..... www.popsci.com/environment/... 🧪🌍🦉

📢 New paper! F0 estimation is a classic task in the Music Information Retrieval (#MIR) community. Yet, it's much less studied in bioacoustics—despite its frequent use to describe animal sounds. Images from doi.org/10.1038/srep... doi.org/10.1098/rspb... doi.org/10.3389/fmar...

By only considering a single ecological trait for each species, we risk oversimplifying the complexity in nature. A new special feature in @animalecology.bsky.social aims to build a better understanding of intraspecific variation  https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/13652656/2025/94/3

For my first post here, i can't help but repost how I'm still collecting data for this project! If you have a digital camera and works with breeding shorebirds, please contact me! (Even here) Otherwise, repost please!
