This fierce #partridge was protecting his nest, by trying to chase these two crows. We were able to observe this when pinpointing another corn bunting territory near Nieuwkerke, Provincie West-Vlaanderen Belgium. @INBOVlaanderen preparing for #kiekngors by vzwVeldwerk

Our new paper led by Braeden Van Deynze shows insecticides are a leading driver of butterfly decline in the US Midwest, above climate and land use change. doi.org/10.1371/journa…

Saturday we tweeted it was only a matter of time before a GPS-Spoonbill would cross to England. We didn't realise that while writing, Spoonbill STORM (ring: NH45) was flying from Zwin Natuur Park 🇧🇪to Poole Harbour Birds of Poole Harbour 🇬🇧! 😱 Here' a bit more about this landmark moment.👇 1/9

Voor de boerenlandvogels mag er ook geen achteruitgang zijn tegen 2030. De lat wordt voor hen geïndexeerd op 1 september volgend jaar (2025). De trend de voorbije jaren was negatief. Ook hier moeten alle nodige maatregelen genomen worden om dit te keren. 3/x

The native grasslands on which grassland birds depend are the most endangered habitat in the country. Without substantial conservation action, many of these species are at risk of disappearing. Learn more: StateOfCanadasBirds.org Art by Shaylena Stenback #stateofcanadasbirds

Nieuw onderzoek van Wageningen U&R over de effecten van neonicotinoïden op (boerenland)vogels. Het is geen fraai beeld. Intussen zijn de meeste "neonics" verboden bij ons. Van de onderzochte neonics is acetamiprid nog in gebruik in BE (vooral fruitteelt). onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

3/The steepest decline is in the farmland bird indicator, down 61% since 1970 & down 9% in the last five years. This was driven by steep declines in species such as Grey Partridge, Turtle Dove & Starling. After long-term declines, Corn Buntings are showing signs of improvement.

Marsh Harriers have recovered from 1 breeding pair in 1971 to 400+ now, a rare good news story for UK raptors. A winter highlight is watching them coming into roost, latest count 144. When blustery they take longer to settle, a spectacular sight as on mass they take to the air.
