Hi, I am in need of some tech advice for my MbyRes! Does anyone know of cheap/effective light or temperature loggers? Or have experience with Tempmate-S1 Loggers or Mindsets Mini light/temperature loggers? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Cornish Jackdaws Guillam E. McIvor

In a rather excellent turn of events, after last nights BBC Countryfile I’ve been inundated with people wanting to change their lights to dark sky friendly ones!🌌💡 With energy bills set to soar, changing your lights is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to save money THREAD

New paper led by Guillam E. McIvor: jackdaws are warier of male than female human voices & behaviour changes with local disturbance levels. This sensitivity may facilitate life in human-dominated environments. #openaccess tinyurl.com/26jmudur. Victoria Lee @asab_tweets #corvids

Thanks Defunct ASAB Conference for having me - I have really enjoyed presenting my research and hearing from all of the amazing behavioural researchers over the past two days! Looking forward to day 3 🎉

Light pollution is rapidly increasing worldwide, causing serious harm to the natural world, human health, and astronomy. This week, a special issue of Science Magazine discusses the damaging effects of light pollution and how to tackle it. science.org/toc/science/38…

A brilliantly written paper... go give it a read! ☺️

Interested in communication, collective behaviour, cognition, social networks and, of course, jackdaws? Then this special issue is for you! Huge thanks to Elodie Briefer, Josefine Bohr Brask, Cédric Sueur - Les Péripéties d'un primatologue & all the editors for making it happen. The Royal Society
