Excellent session on causes and consequences of #mitochondria variation #EOU! Stefania Casagrande, @elisathrl.bsky.social Neal Dawson, @pablosalmon.bsky.social Molly Ohse. Variation due to altitude, temperature, diet, pollution,across life- history stages

📌 I really enjoyed @pablosalmon.bsky.social’s talk at #EOU2025! 🐦 Exploring how #mitochondria may shape avian #migration — lessons from Eurasian #blackbirds with different strategies. Great insights into the energetic basis of life-history strategies!

Liviu Prison showing how blue tit eggs have become more elongated with time and urbanization! I wonder why? #EOU2025

Cool natural experiment type of study system showed by Anna Kellner, where they actually know exactly when species colonize, including tawny owls and pine martens #EOU2025 #BOU

Welcome to #BOUatEOU Woodland Birds, our one-day symposium at #EOU2025 Stay up-to-date with the symposium here on Bluesky by following #BOUatEOU, where presenters will be sharing their research via short threads. #ornithology 🪶🧪 🧵1/10

At #EOU2025 @eounion.bsky.social conference next week, we'll show new evidence implicating forestry in declines of British Marsh Tits during the era of woodland conversion in 1950/60s-1980s. This was period of steepest decline in Marsh Tits. Why? What was going on back then? #ornithology 1/5

Thomas Tieze, showing great data on song evolution in Paris #EOU2025. Song and colourfulness negative correlate

Sad story about 96% decline in willow tit in UK! Cool work by Paul Bellamy looking at factors affecting occupancy and abundance

Just arrived at Bangor for the excellent @eounion.bsky.social #EOU2025 and #BOU conferences! Looking forward to a week of great science on birds!

Deadline for applying the #postdoc on #ecoevo #ecophysiology #microbiota #thermal #avian #genetics in Finland is today 🙂

Some gut microbes can absorb and help expel 'forever chemicals' from the body, research shows https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jul/13/pfas-gut-microbes-forever-chemicals 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀 ⇢ CanadaHealthwatch.ca 🍁

In this study, Cortés-Manzaneque et al. provide strong evidence that prenatal signals of predation risk prepare chicks to cope with predators during their postnatal development, based on findings from a field experiment on the yellow-legged gull. Read now! www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Gulls experience anthropogenic changes in natural & urban environments, making them useful #BioIndicators. This study of gull physiological health provides reference values for future biomonitoring. Read it here ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conp...

A thing I've been working on is out now: I wrote the cover story for the summer issue of Living Bird! Scientists have sequenced the genomes of almost all 25 (!) song sparrow subspecies AND connected their genes to how they're each likely to fare under climate change.
