In #ParAnthropE with @illgottencranes.bsky.social we tagged and monitored female salmon lice at contrasting host densities to test how intensive aquaculture affects their life histories.
The paper is finally out ๐
Check it out ๐

As we mourn Jane Goodall, this @nature.com article explores three ways in which she changed science:
1. Altering the way we view both other primates and ourselves
2. Inspiring generations of women scientists
3. Communicating science in a way that engaged the public

Last Friday, we published the 500th article of Peer Community Journal! ๐ฅณ
From saving iconic species to publishing the Ukraine Breeding Bird Atlas during wartime, USPB has spent 30 years protecting Ukraineโs nature.
Weโre proud to have them in the @birdlifeglobal.bsky.social Partnership and support their work for people & the planet ๐๐

Just 1 week left to apply to a 3yr Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in Landscape Multifunctionality here in beautiful Bergen (deadline Oct 1st) www.jobbnorge.no/en/available... The postion is part of the Agroecology Partnership project SAFER www.agroecologypartnership.eu/safer Please repost!
The Bergen data for 2025 are finally entered and checked ๐
69 clutches ๐ชบ monitored (36 forest, 33 urban), 111 adults ๐ฆ (re)captured, 448 nestlings ๐ฅ ringed.
Plus, nest-dwelling ectoparasite data for most of those!
Small team, great effort @freyacoursey.bsky.social ๐ช

How is this possible?
This ant can lay eggs of two different species, birthed by the same mother

How to share good open data
Plenary by Antica Culina @anticac.bsky.social : Collaborative & robust bird research - why & how. Registration, open data, open code #eou2025 #OpenScience #OpenData
Great last plenary by @suviruuskanen.bsky.social about the microbiome of birds! What a fascinating microscopic world!

Yours truly and our mounted Great Auk (Pinguinus impennis) specimen
The bird collection store, busy with visiting researchers, mounts, and in the background our volunteers who capture data from the specimen labels. It's not always this packed, but we do have a fair number of volunteers and visitors.
Blue Tits (Cyanistes caeruleus) in trays in the cabinets. The collections spaces are pretty new, fresh, and functional, which is not always the case for museum collections...
A tray of African raptor eggs to illustrate the breadth of the bird collection, which holds som 70K skin specimens, 60K egg clutches, and 10K skeletons.
Join us as Assistant #Curator of Vertebrates @ ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟNMS! Large collections of #birds & #mammals + very active specimen prep = cool place! The ad doesn't say, but I say there's a good chance of prolongation beyond 1y. Hurry up and apply/spread the word: careers.nms.ac.uk/job/748553!

Superb weather in Wales for a splendid excursion in costal heather landscape yesterday, at RSPB's South Stack reserve ๐คฉ #EOU2025 #ornithology
@freyacoursey.bsky.social's poster, showing the first preliminary data from her first PhD season, got quite a number of visitors at #EOU2025. Well done, and thanks to data & sample contributors and of course, to @spibirds.bsky.social for facilitating such large-scale studies ๐ #ornithology
Last captures and last chicks ringed today, 9th monitoring season and @freyacoursey.bsky.social's 1st PhD season successfully completed โ Finally a good year for our breeding tits! despite the pine marten taking some late broods... my fingertips will now recover from those fighter females ๐
House cats and windows may kill more birds than wind farms do, but turbines pose a real threat to some endangered species.
Experts are testing new ways to avert collisions, from painting stripes on turbine blades to using A.I. to spot incoming birds.
What a field season... earlier than ever, superb weather up until most broods were >10 days, lots of fat nestlings, but now the pine marten has found our nestboxes ๐ฑ The later broods race against the clock to fledge before they get taken ๐ข
Today a huge crowd of humans in Vatican looked up and cheered at a yellow-legged gull chick #ornithology
Eighty years ago, enemies laid down their arms.
Since then, we, Europeans, have built something extraordinary: a Union of peace, democracy, and solidarity. An anchor of stability.
Our Union was born as a peace project, and it remains one today.
Avec Jacques Blondel, Anne Charmantier et Philippe Perret, nous venons de publier dans la collection monde sauvage d'Acte Sud ce livre
And so it starts for @freyacoursey.bsky.social's first PhD field season, and our 9th year of monitoring for Bergen... Found not only the first eggs a few days ago (๐ฎ), but also the first caterpillars today, in our newly set up urban sites.
