Hey #Australia, cool bird alert! This dark morph Parasitic Jaeger (aka #Arctic Skua) carrying a satellite tag from #Alaska arrived in Oz four days ago. It is super close to the coast. Part of ConnectivityProject.

Ok NASA Earth, Plume of 🌋 volcanic ash is not a variable I had been considering for our #seabird habitat models...Pomarine Jaeger movements tracked by 🛰️ this month along the Kuril Islands. #satellites #birds

New job post! ABC is hiring a full-time position for the Pacific Northwest Motus Coordinator, which will provide key leadership and coordination of the Motus Wildlife Tracking System and inform conservation action for migratory species. Apply ASAP! abcbirds.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?…

A 2nd ConnectivityProject Parasitic Jaeger (aka #Arctic #Skua) tracked from #Alaska entered Australian waters this weekend. And the first has now flown down to Kangaroo Island 🐧🦭🐨🦘🦎 #MondayMotivation #Seabird #Ornithology

What's the collective noun for a group of Long-tailed Jaegers? A Jägerbomb? 🤣#HighSeas #BBNJ #ABNJ #Seamounts #Seabirds #NewZealand

Today I was asked by a #scientist attending #COP15 how they could engage most effectively. I understand the uncertainty about how to do this well. It is a big meeting with different layers and so many events. Here are a few suggestions🧵:

NEW PAPER: "6 principles for working effectively with landowners to advance bird conservation", now #OA in Ornithological Applications. Our social-ecological evidenced-based principles should be valuable to all biodiversity conservation on private lands.

Pre-internet, when my parents got the great idea to hyphenate my name, they never could have anticipated how frequently I would be rejected in life from spelling my own name properly... #Developers #Internet #Forms #SpecialCharacters Shout out to my apostrophe'd friends too!

Very proud to share our new paper, "Defining null expectations for animal site fidelity", out in Ecology Letters! With Briana Abrahms, EGelzer, @morrison_green, Tana Verzuh, and Jerod Merkle. doi.org/10.1111/ele.14…

Still seeking 1 grad student for Upland Sandpiper project! Great opportunity to study #migratoryconnectivity and population structure, working with an established set of collaborators across the species’ range. U of Saskatchewan SCO-SOC #shorebirds #ornithology #birdmigration

A truly wonderful experience joining Kazoo Magazine's Motion Issue to for a feature on #animal #migration...to me the most moving of all natural phenomena! I can't wait to share with the little ones in my life, but also, am I too old to subscribe?

Fascinating multi-generational take on the ⬆️ & ⬇️of learning to #track #animals. Hear from 60s grad student Harry Reynolds who tracked the 1st elk by 🛰️, interpretation by Lacey Hughey, who studies mammals today, and insight on new methods like Icarus! airandspace.si.edu/editorial/airs…

In honor of #WorldMigratoryBirdDay, check out the story of two satellite-tagged long-tailed jaegers, named by the MCP team as Idita and Rod, on their migration back to their breeding site along the #Iditarod Trail in Nome, Alaska

So happy to share the news: our #openaccess paper is out in #BiologicalConservation discussing 25+ years of #marineconnectivity and #migratory species research! Huge thanks to the MiCO team and supporters along the way bit.ly/micolitrev 🌐🌊 #horizonscan #highseas
