📢📢PhD opportunity! We are looking for enthusiastic researchers to develop a project looking at the ontogeny of migratory behaviour! Deadline for expression of interest: 8 February 2026 👉Check details here: drive.google.com/file/d/1wow2... #migration #ornithology #GPStracking

Extremelly happy that our project BirdRice was approved for funding! We will keep studying the relationships between #waterbirds and #ricefields while trying to solve human-wildlife conflicts. #ornithology #tracking #connectivity #agriculture #conservation @cienciasulisboa.bsky.social

While monitoring storks over the years, we’ve noticed the alarming numbers of chicks entangled in ropes. In this paper, we quantified the impacts!

25th Student Conference in Conservation Science, Cambridge, 31 March – 2 April 2026. Looking for postgraduate students and early-career conservation scientists, in a broad range of fields, to apply to present talks or posters on their work. www.sccs-cam.org

Great work led by @joanferrerobiol.bsky.social on the amazing lesser kestrels! Check it here!

Spring has arrived, and so have the first rollers! Our team is working hard to provide them with the best nesting sites. Follow our journey! #ornithology #conservation

The breeding season is moving along nicely, and most #WhiteStork eggs have already hatched! Here is 5Y+, a 9-year-old male ringed as a chick in 2016, with his three hatchlings and two remaining eggs. #Ornithology

Storks are amazing birds. Tracking them for many years enabled us to find some cool stuff!

So happy to share our paper on how #WhiteStorks are changing their migratory behaviour. Check it here: 👉 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

time flies and the first #WhiteStorks eggs are already hatching! Look at this! #ornithology

The Ecology & Behaviour annual conference is organised BY and FOR young researchers. In 2025 it comes back to Montpellier @ the Center for Functional & Evolutionary Ecology. Highly recommended to PhD students & postdocs - come to share your science, make new friends & meet your future collaborators!

We've been following #Barlavento for many years now. This winter, his GPS device stopped working in Senegal and we were unsure about his fate. It was a relief to find him well this week, ready to start another breeding season! Well done Barlavento!

We are working to revert the decline of the European Roller (Coracias garrulus) in Portugal, with 156 nest-boxes ready for the upcoming breeding season! How many will be occupied this year? Stay tuned! Find out more about the project: sites.google.com/view/roller-...

Just arrived from the second #EUFLYNET COST Action meeting in Tarifa, Spain. Three intense days discussing bird migration and conservation with researchers from all Europe.
