Managed to blast through Hamburg, my home away from home, on a quick tour of some favourite spots this morning. Miniatur Wunderland, Speicherstadt, Alter Elbtunnel and the Fischmarkt.

NEW BOOK: ‘Wildlife Research in Australia: Practical and Applied Methods’ was published last week. I’m proud to have contributed to the #Research Methods section, co-authoring two chapters on ‘#Wildlife Marking Methods’ and ‘Wildlife Tracking Methods’ 📚 publish.csiro.au/book/7964/

Long-eared #owl chick calling to its parents. Northern Germany.

My daughter and I did some fun holiday investigative biology in Germany. We found an #owl nest, collected and sifted through some pellets (containing a #vole), decided it was a long-eared owl and confirmed by looking for adults at dusk. Impressive birds. Excuse the binos photos.

I am recruiting PhD students for 3 years to work on comparative genomics of Australian mammals Macquarie University School of Natural Sciences under an Australian Research Council grant (details below). Please share/RT and apply. Deadline for expressions of interest 24th July 2022/Starting 2023. #phdpositions

The day's long-eared #owl pellet haul. Seems like #voles are the favourite. Must admit we lost steam long before they were all processed and stopped when we hit maggots.

The newly reintroduced #marsupials are already making themselves at home. The freshly released kowaris (beautiful fluffy-tailed predators) are expanding lizard and mice burrows, as well as digging their own, at Arid Recovery. #fieldwork #MammalWatching #WildOz #rewilding
