Had an amazing time in the Scillies carrying out a UAV census of the grey seal population! 🦭 First part of my Master's Project fieldwork ✅

Had an amazing time at #BES2022 over the last few days hearing about so much exciting and inspiring research! Really enjoyed presenting my ongoing Master's research Oxford Biology on estimating the 3D body size of seals with drones to use for population modelling as well! 🦭

The #MCEM team are learning all things #IPM- thanks Rob Salguero-Gómez Oxford Biology @Ben_Sheldon_EGI

Two visits to Weymouth SEA LIFE complete for ground-truthing my body size estimates of #seals using #drone imagery. A big thank you to the brilliant staff (and seals!) who’ve helped me with this!

First documented #hybrid harbour-grey #sealpup at Denmark's museum of the sea! Though #greyseal DNA has been found in the uterus of female #harbourseals, a hybrid has never been documented - until this morning 😲Fathered by a harbour seal and born by a grey seal 🦭

Bird flu is spreading around the world and even spilling over to mammals. What does this mean for humans and wildlife, and what should we be doing about it? Divya Venkatesh explores the topic for The Conversation ⬇️ theconversation.com/bird-flu-conti… #AvianInfluenza #BirdFlu

Fantastic Oxford Biology Ecology & Conservation section Graduate Symposium yesterday, hosted at WildCRU, Oxford! Really interesting talks and lovely people

Great to be back on fieldwork in the Scillys this week with the MCEM group!

Our collab review paper, on diversity of #matingsystem variation in #shorebird species, is free to read at onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ib… Highlighting current knowledge, #research advances, research bias & suggestions for future research. *Click to zoom* #parentalcare #animalbehaviour

Really enjoyed getting involved with the SalGo Team outreach at Science Oxford over the weekend, it was great to see so many kids so excited by and engaged with science !

🎉 Attenborough's long-beaked echidna, lost to science since 1961, has been rediscovered! The team battled leeches, malaria, and >11,000m of climbing in the Cyclops Mountains to capture the first ever images of the species 👇 Read the incredible story ⏩ bit.ly/3QREXjN

Check out our talks and posters at #BES2023 this week Oxford Biology British Ecological Society!

Beautiful conditions yesterday to survey grey seals on the Isles of Scilly with John Peacock and Isles of Scilly Wildlife Trust Katrina Davis Thomas Stone Oxford Biology

Welcome to our fantastic Intelligent Earth UK Research and Innovation Centre for Doctoral Training in AI for the Environment cohort at University of Oxford! Two weeks of training in software engineering and environmental data analysis completed, on to Responsible AI for the Environment next week!

Some species are difficult to get close to, but drones can navigate this issue and avoid disturbing animals 🦭 New research from Thomas Stone Katrina Davis will improve our ability to monitor species and help us make effective conservation decisions 👇 bit.ly/4fPEV5T

Exciting to finally present the coral reef stepping stones work that I've been doing with Dr Emily Darling @thewcs Marie-Josee Fortin and colleagues at #BES2024! Thank you Matthew Morecrofr MCEM Oxford for the 📸.
