It's tomorrow! Remember to join us at 12 midday (GMT)

Have you ever wondered about the disparities in #seabirds species at conferences? Are we talking about all the species? Wonder no more. We (@thelabandfield.bsky.social @seabirdsentinel.bsky.social @ingridpollet.bsky.social) have the answer! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

One week left on this! Good opportunity for someone interested in #behaviour, #genomics and #migration to come work will some fun seabirds and some fun people 🧬🐣🛰️ www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

#EOU2025 Come and join us for the symposium on the importance of vagrancy in ecology and evolution. Lots of great results in the talks from the different speakers! LR4 - Friday 22 - 10:30 @alexanderlees.bsky.social @joewynnbirds.bsky.social #ornithology @vogelwarte.bsky.social

The Guillemates is back for another year! Sign up now! If you've got any questions, message me or send me an email at [email protected]

Advancing Seabird Diet Studies Through Buccal Swabbing for DNA Metabarcoding | Ecology and Evolution | onlinelibrary.wiley.... | #ornithology 🪶🧪

Hello! We're now on #Bluesky! PhULMaR is a PhD lab group for those around the British and Irish Isles studying birds that use the #marine #environment. Currently headed by @bardseyben.bsky.social @dianepavat.bsky.social, we meet online on the last Friday of each month. Get in touch to join!

Thrilled to say the first chapter of my PhD is out today in @ecol-evol.bsky.social! We used buccal swabbing & DNA metabarcoding to explore the diet of Fulmars & Manx shearwaters 🧬🐧 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Great to be back @bardseybirdobs.bsky.social for my second field season. Lots of chicks hatching everyday now! 🐥😍

Our review paper about same sex partnerships in birds is out today🏳️‍🌈🐦: nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... It has been so fun working with @tashgillies.bsky.social and I can't wait to do more projects together Yay to the gay birds!!! Illustration : @bertillemohring.bsky.social

Pleased to get my first Yellow Wagtail for the site at South Stack this morning 🌞 alongside 4 Tree Pipit & 1 Spot Fly @angbirdnews.bsky.social #birdingwales

Beautiful start to a long day at South Stack & HBCP with a crazy 73 Willow Warblers counted! Also 17 Chiff, 7 Blackcap, 1 Redstart (patch tick 😊), 1 Sedge Warbler, 2 Tree Pipit, 9 Wheatears & 7 White Wagtails @angbirdnews.bsky.social #birdingwales

Some brilliant birding at South Stack these last few days- 4 Ring Ouzels, 2 Black Redstarts, 23 Wheatears, 1 White Wagtail, 1 Marsh Harrier and plenty of hirundines & phylloscs! (photos by Dante) @angbirdnews.bsky.social #birdingwales

1/6 Tidal stream environments are unique marine habitats characterised by fast tidal currents. Knowledge of how #seabirds use these areas for foraging is scarce. @tomgale98.bsky.social is at #BOU2025 presenting work on understanding drivers of habitat selection of Shags in these environments...

Rare but lovely weekend birding away from Holyhead! 2 Willow Tits at Llyn Brenig, 19+ Hawfinches at Caerhun & drake Surf Scoter off Old Colwyn. #walesbirding

This LBBG was photographed by John Jarju / Kartong Bird Observatory in the Gambia on 4/2/25. It was ringed on Bardsey on 8/7/24. Distance between the two sites was 4534Km.

Dante and I wrote a blog about birding Holyhead last year 😄 dslgebirding.wordpress.com/2025/01/22/h...

New paper in @currentbiology.bsky.social on seabird wind use and foraging decisions! doi.org/10.1016/j.cu... We estimated wind selectivity in Manx shearwaters and explored how birds handle the trade-off between being wind efficient and targeting known foraging areas @sosbangor.bsky.social
