New paper! Terns differ in how they respond to changes in prey availability in the Gulf of Maine, with implications for the growth of their chicks. Isotopes + provisioning watches show that terns face trade-offs between prey quality & foraging distance. dx.doi.org/10.1002/ecs2...

Jess Wade is amazing, and it's my absolute honour to be one of the more than 2000 women in STEM whose wikipedia page she started: mymodernmet.com/jessica-wade... 🧪🔭👩‍🔬

In 1981, just 4 years after Project Puffin began, adult puffins returned to Eastern Egg Island—with fish in their beaks 🐟 A sign chicks had hatched! Today, hundreds thrive there—thanks to Dr. Stephen Kress, their dedicated protector. 🐧 🎥 youtu.be/ELBvPTvA8NA?...

A great outcome from a workshop at our #seabird conference last year in Portugal, this review paper collab has been selected as Editor's choice at ICES Journal of Marine Science! 💪👏 ⤵️ academic.oup.com/icesjms/arti... #seabirdmonitoring #newtechnology #remotecameras #acoustic #biotelemetry #UAVs 🛰️🌊

Bluesky #bird people- if you haven’t seen it yet, you have to watch #Listers. It’s birds, it’s free, it’s funny, it has awesome bird footage, and it’s decidedly not kid friendly. What more could you want? youtu.be/JjWExJQed2Y?...

Calling all isotope ecologists. IsoEcol 2026 will be held between October 12-17th, 2026 at the University of Hong Kong See www.isoecol.com/2026/ for more

Sometimes we need to find clever vessels for weighing tiny #seabird chicks!

Sharing a couple of my photos and sketches from monitoring Common Terns this year for #SeabirdSeptember Summer wouldn't be summer without Seabirds 🌊🐧🪿 #CommonTerns #Seabirds #UKBirding @theseabirdgroup.bsky.social @smp-seabirds.bsky.social

Tis the season for bird migration! Eastern migration will likely pick up Monday/Tuesday night as Erin’s influence moves out and north winds take over. #birds #fall #migration #LightsOutForBirds

Do I know anyone on here who might find it useful to predict hatching dates from birds eggs? Please reach out if you're open to help me develop ovotime.com to include more species, and to expand with more detailed #oology features! #phenology #seabirds #ornithology 🌍🧪

Are you at the #EOU2025 and interested in #OpenScience? Matthieu Paquet and I are hosting this roundtable to chat about the topic with you 😀 @eounion.bsky.social @sortee.bsky.social #ornithology

Introducing "The SORTEE Guidelines for Data and Code Quality Control in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology" The first standardised set of data editor guidelines. Led by SORTEE with input from numerous data editors across ecology and evolution. 🔗 doi.org/10.32942/X24...

So exciting that our paper on #puffin wing molt is out! We're learning more about oceanic life history, and how to protect this beloved species beyond the breeding colony, bit by bit. #stableisotopes, #seabirds, #ornithology - worth a read. Thank you #gulls, for the feather samples.

Motivated by Sanchez et al. 2025 & BioGraphI sesh at #ESA2025 - I want to share the diversity in our field with my #ecology students after asking them what identifies they associate w/the field. #Ecologists please consider sharing 3 (single words) aspects of your identify on this menti (anonymous!)

Extended deadline until tomorrow!

@sortee.bsky.social meetup tonight at #ESA2025! Come join us to informally discuss all things #openscience - meet at the open science table at 6:30 to walk over together, or at “the Back Yard” (131 S Schroeder Street) at 7pm

Having a lovely time at #ESA2025! Three talks/workshops, all in collaboration with incredible @gettysburgcollege.bsky.social students- including co-facilitation of session run by rockstar former student Julia Sharapi!
