Great experience attending #BES2025 this week and presenting my poster. Very grateful to see my latest findings featured by @britishecologicalsociety.org. More updates on this work and on our owl project coming in 2026 🦉💡🚗 #owls #ecology #RaptorResearch

NEW JOB in #ornithology with @RSPBScience to tag and track #seabirds on Rathlin Island: buff.ly/YXOCMiU

Very interesting new research presented at BES by Giuseppe Orlando and the GTOP @glasgowtawnyowlprj.bsky.social ! 🦉🌃💡❓ -- @britishecologicalsociety.org @dmdominoni.bsky.social

New systematic review from @johankjensen.bsky.social and collegues* on the growing trend of "neophobia". Sounds like a great read! -- *Anna S. Persson, Masashi Soga

🎉 Congratulations to @pcapi.bsky.social and @alice-risely.bsky.social, the winners of the 2025 JAB review award for the best mini-review by early career researchers! 🏆 Winning article: vist.ly/4iq5m #ornithology #birds #award #review #microbiome #migration

If you're at #BES2025 and interested in owls and how noise & light pollution affect their foraging behaviour, come to check out my owl poster 🦉💡🚗 #owls #ecology #ornithology #RaptorResearch

Assembling a new batch of #tawnyowl nestboxes for our project! Looking forward to putting them up and welcoming more owls this coming season 🦉 @e-carlon-m3.bsky.social #owls #RaptorResearch #ecology

Interested in #RaptorResearch and #MovementEcology? 🧪 The #AnimalEcology Lab at @utu.fi has an open #PhDposition! We’ll be tagging WTEs with cutting-edge #GPS devices to study their early-life journeys. Curious to learn more? See the advert: shorturl.at/HMZ84 #PhDOpening #PhDChat #BioLogging

NEW PAPER: how bird diets and gut microbiomes shape each other: synthesizing how diet drives microbiome shifts, how microbes may steer diet choices, and outlining key questions and methods for studying diet–microbiome links. ➡️ vist.ly/4gjuw #ornithology #birds 🪶

a wonderful, fully funded PhD opportunity Deadline approaching (ok not that quickly but you may forget over Christmas!) 7th January www.uea.ac.uk/course/phd-d...

🧵1/9 There are 35,000+ fish species, but we have formal social-behaviour classifications for a tiny fraction. Most knowledge lives in the experience of researchers, fishers, divers, aquarists, naturalists, and Indigenous communities, but almost none of it is centralised. So we built ShoalBase.org.

An incredible opportunity to work with the @rspb.bsky.social and Storm petrels as part of your Master's degree! 🕊️ #research #seabirds

POV: you are a young woman celebrating a recent academic success

New online! Mangrove biodiversity and ecosystem services

NEW PAPER in #ornithology and #conservation reviews the marine threats to #seabirds and other marine #megafauna and confirms that #fisheries are a severe problem: buff.ly/5SXNdqr

Amazing work by @gwest16.bsky.social and colleagues 🥳

Genetic load, fitness and conservation in the Seychelles warbler. A wonderful PhD opportunity - spanning important evolutionary and conservation-relevant concepts. Come work with us lnkd.in/dtGaEJV2

A study in Nature Reviews Biodiversity, led by NIU biologist Holly Jones with contributions from NIU students and global experts, shows that restoring seabird populations can significantly protect biodiversity and enhance climate resilience. bit.ly/43M2SHt

How are movement patterns affected by energy expenditure & gain, and what does it mean for fitness? This @iapetusdtp.bsky.social PhD opportunity will use data on movement & demography of kittiwakes & spatio-temporal food abundance across their range iapetus.ac.uk/studentships... #ornithology

I am very excited to share that we have a new paper out today in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com In it, we summarize the state of knowledge on the Circular Seabird Economy! 1/n 🧪 Link to paper here: rdcu.be/eMOUd

Fantastic new review out highlighting the importance of #seabirds and the Circular Seabird Economy, for healthy marine- terrestrial ecosystems globally, and for local communities reliant on marine resources. 📚🏝️🐟 @dochpjones.bsky.social @lec-reefs.bsky.social @nickajgraham.bsky.social @nature.com

New paper out in Proceedings B! 🔊 Seabirds' impacts on reefs extends even to some of its tiniest inhabitants - cryptobenthic reef fishes 🐠 Near colonies, these fishes assimilate seabird nutrients (💩), grow larger 📈 & more at: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... @royalsocietypublishing.org
