Using a dataset from multi-sensor loggers, we & @umontpellier.bsky.social @umrlienss.bsky.social @btobirds.bsky.social found that ecological barrier crossing strategies differ in small migratory bird according to wing morphology and plumage color. Read more here: doi.org/10.1016/j.is...
Did you know that European Rollers (Coracias garrulus) mainly use grassland habitats, especially on the wintering sites? This is one of the findings of our study with the University of Szeged. Read more here: doi.org/10.1186/s404...
Last Sunday was World Swift Day! Throwback to the 8th International Swift Conference that took place in Castlebar (Ireland), where 185 specialists of 16 countries discussed topics such as conservation, research, volunteers, and care stations.
This week, we're hosting an international workshop focusing on decoding animal movement. We're happy to welcome 40 participants from all continents! #EUFLYNET @biologists.bsky.social
Using a Bayesian integrated population model built over 40y of data and environmental covariates, our team discovered that precipitation contributed significantly to variation in population growth rate in the European pied flycatcher. doi.org/10.1002/eap.... @esajournals.bsky.social
At #CMSCOP15 in 🇧🇷, #AEMLAP hosted a side event on how habitat restoration benefits people and migratory landbirds.
CMS, UNCCD, BirdLife Africa, Ethiopia, and the Swiss Ornithological Institute shared success stories and called for stronger collaboration.

Together with the @bfh-ch.bsky.social, we explored the effects of temperature, forest stand characteristics, sparoxylic insect communities on White-backed Woodpeckers activity. Our results emphasize the importance of promoting large live trees. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.fo...
