I was very happy to present the study we performed (a bit less about the emergency baby poster 🐣) that would not have been possible without the work of @justinedelautre.bsky.social @ankitha-jayanth.bsky.social @ckecz.bsky.social #lapwings #behaviour at #EOU26 @eoufledglings.bsky.social

@sangeeth-sailas.bsky.social presenting a massive work on vocal activity of co-occurring and competing raptors at @eoufledglings.bsky.social #EOU26

Annual survival of waders versus adult body mass, migration distance and year of study

New article in Oikos with a global review of annual survival for waders comparing estimation methods and phylogeny. Survival increases with body mass but decreases with migration distance and during past 40 years. Team led by @dillensegerg.bsky.social. #ornithology #waders doi.org/10.1002/oik....

Breeding seasonality in Charadriiformes on the Andean Altiplano is influenced by rain and possibly flood risk The Andean Altiplano in South America represents a remarkable mountain ecosystem with unique wildlife. However, knowledge of breeding ecology for birds inhabiting Andean Altiplano is scarce, relying ...

New paper with @calonectris.bsky.social on Andean shorebirds phenology is out in Ecosphere @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social, where we combined citizen-science and field data to decipher nest timing of understudied species: esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #shorebird #bird #PhDstudy

Great success 🥳

Habitat‐Dependent Provisioning Patterns Are Modulated by Weather Conditions in a Rapidly Declining Farmland Raptor We monitored parental food provisioning of Little Owls in four European countries with contrasting farmland structure using nestbox cameras and demonstrated that across all countries, provisioning ra...

A PhD chapter that I'm very proud of is finally out in @ecol-evol.bsky.social!🦉

Using nestbox cameras from 4 countries, we explored interactive effects of habitat quality &weather on provisioning &prey composition 🪱🪲🐀in Little Owls -a rapidly declining farmland raptor.

#iwsg2025 Is over, and I already missed it. Happy that so many people wanted to chitchat with me about my vaporware poster about 3D nest morphology, or about our( @dillensegerg.bsky.social ) project about Andean shorebird breeding timing! See you next year @waderstudy.bsky.social !

Throwback to 2021, when me and @dillensegerg.bsky.social had the honor to be invited to participated in the chaccu, the roundup of the vicuña to shear the wool. It was hard to chase them while running at >4.500 meters of elevation near Arequipa!

Excited to announce the start of our 2025 field season in Argentina, investigating movement, antipredatory and nesting behaviours of teros with @delphyllis.bsky.social and @juancho-32.bsky.social #lapwing #teros #PhDstudy #ornithology

@dillensegerg.bsky.social gives a very interesting talk at #EOU2025 @eounion.bsky.social on the effect of rainfall on breeding phenology in Andean shorebirds! 🐣☔

Amazing poster of @sangeeth-sailas.bsky.social from JCU South Bohemia presenting one of his PHD chapter: global analysis of raptor, which raptors suffer from intentional mortality and deserve more protection measures at #EOU2025

Great initiative, can I be added as well ? :)

Our collaborative project #BDBORS exploring the link between nesting phenology and substrate property, is still ongoing, with collected data in Asia and America. You monitor ground-nesting birds in tropics? Then consider joining us! Contact me :) #ornithology #birds #tropicalecology

Justine Delautre, M1 student in our team from @master-rainet.bsky.social, successful defended her thesis on risks and consequences lapwings are facing when nesting close to forests. We hope to share soon the results with you #ornithology #conservation #PhD #lapwing #shorebird

Curlews eavesdrop on prairie dog alarm calls to avoid danger. Prairie dogs = "keystone information producers" 💚
This thread explains the study outcomes, and the photo of the "badgerinator" used as a predator proxy is just the icing on the cake.

A throwback to our WOS blog post about our 2021 field season in Peru with @calonectris.bsky.social #ornithology #lapwing

Very happy to see our new M1 student investigating the link between forest distance, predation risk and aggressiveness in lapwings in Czech Republic. Stay tuned to see the results of this study #shorebird #predation #lapwing #ornithology
