Here's a movie poster (click for full image) for our thrilling new paper on annual-cycle movements of black scoters, just out in @wildlifesociety Journal of Wildlife Management. Message me for a copy!

A few messages I’ve been mulling over from @TheLabAndField’s #corkseabirds plenary:.- Allyship, like clean dishes, is a transient state;.- Faith communities are valuable, but neglected, conservation partners; and.- Don’t wait until after you’re dead to tell people who you are.

Seeing so many wonderful people and so much wonderful science at #CorkSeabirds has been too overwhelming to tweet about, but here’s a lovely panorama of Cork this evening by way of apology.

For anyone out there who's interested in tracking weekly growth of the human fetus and prefers seabirds (+ a few friends) to fruits and vegetables as a frame of reference, I present this handy chart.

Highly recommend Enriqueta's talk (and the whole session on indigenous and local knowledge) for some incredible insights on the historical and ecological value of traditional ecological knowledge for seabird conservation. #PSG2022.

List of Comcaac indigenous names for seabirds in the Gulf of California. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that shearwater = "one who thinks it's a booby" (credit to Enriqueta Velarde) #PSG2022

Happy Valentine's from this pelican chick that 🤎s you.

Rochelle did a fabulous job managing fieldwork in Mobile Bay, with help from coauthors @DrDiceDiceBaby and @YvanSatge of @SCCoopUnit, plus John Dindo of @disealab. If you're ever in southwest Florida, buy her a beer and ask her about boats. .

Excellent work by my first (co-supervised) MS student, Rochelle! Long story short, we found that local weather patterns are better than habitat features at predicting survival of pelican nests. Message me for a copy!.

So cool to see fecal DNA results from @DrGemClucas confirming (and expanding on) visual diet observations for terns in the Gulf of Maine! As someone who has spent 100s of hours in blinds collecting these visual data, I've really enjoyed see this work develop. #WSC3.

New tool by @KatieB314 and @LilaMayaCN that uses genomic data and machine learning to assign birds to colonies and assess bycatch patterns. Keep an eye out for more! #WSC3

Such beautiful graphics in @Ju_A_Vianna's talk showing genetic differentiation and drivers of adaptation in Antarctic penguin complexes. 🤩 #WSC3
