This weekend we lost a legend of seabird research and conservation with the passing of Mike Harris. We are indebted to his extraordinary vision setting up the Isle of May work and dedication in maintaining one of the finest studies of seabird ecology over more than 50 years. 1/2

Back from a rewarding few days visiting colleagues from Rum Deer Research on Rum itself. Spectacular scenery, long walks over the hills, excellent food & company & much science discussed. And some great Natural History to follow 1/n

Congratulations Richard, first PhD paper out!

How to use airborne laser scanning of vegetation structure to determine causes and consequences of bird nestsite selection: dense vegetation is preferred, but then has higher predation rates ☹️

I am pleased to have had our Indirect Genetic Effects paper accepted at Evolution (Oxford Academic). We looked at how the inclusion of IGEs (social env, partner, etc.) explained variance in extra-pair paternity models for both sexes (Vige, below).
I’ll post a DOI when we have one.

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and 'safe' temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯.
🧵, please RT.

Suella Braverman keeps repeating that the Rwanda scheme etc is the “will of the British people”

If, like me, you’re British, & this is not your “will” let her know by retweeting this please.

We deserve to be heard

And thank you to everyone for all the lovely messages!

Does anyone know of quantitative genetic studies of free-living animal populations that are run by researchers outside Europe, North America and Australia/NZ?

Please RT, I'm very keen to find some
