Amanda Rodewald from @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social is delivering #BOU2024 #AlfredNewtonLecture about the processes that shape urban birds. Years of research showed striking differences in bird communities as landscapes urbanised & many assume it's due to the high numbers of predators in cities but..
#BOU2024 #AlfredNewtonLecture is starting and a summary will follow on here shortly
Tonight, we are starting #BOU2024 with a #AlfredNewtonLecture being delivered by Prof Amanda Rodewald from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology
We encourage you to ask questions via comments and to like and re-share #BOU2024 posts to help us reach as many ornithologists around the world as possible!
@IBIS_journal’s #BOU2023 evolutionary ecology of birds conference is opened by BOU President @juliet_vickery introducing Prof Jane Reid to deliver the 2023 #AlfredNewtonLecture
