Disturbance of wintering waders seems to be an obvious problem but where's the evidence that it really matters? Blog about important paper by Mark Whittingham et al was published on 3 Feb 2020 🎂5️⃣ https://t.co/YMdqJp9QKR #ornithology #waders #shorebirds

The Red Bridge at Samut Sakho, Thailand, is a great place to get close to Brown-headed Gulls (and other birds). My latest blog post is an account of a recent visit - https://t.co/fGiflPfCzT #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birding

The annual post-breeding moult of a shorebird lasts about three months - that's as long as a successful breeding season. Monitoring moult using digital cameras: https://t.co/GJdgoxGnUm #ornithology
