presented at the 12th RIN Conference on Animal Navigation at Royal Holloway College in the UK
It was a fantastic setting, with plenty of engaging discussions and valuable exchanges throughout the event
A warm welcome to Pattraporn Simla (Bouquet) from King Mongkut´s University of Technology Thonburi, Thailand, who joined our group for the next six months to work on her data regarding threats for the critically endangered Yellow-breasted Bunting
#EastAsianFlyway
Very happy to work together with PhD candidate Pattraporn Simla from Thailand for the coming months!
Watch this video to learn about their work on studying & protecting the critically endangered Yellow-breasted Bunting on its wintering grounds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4j0...
#EastAsianFlyway
Small migratory birds cross deserts and seas as part of their annual migration. But how?
Our new study shows how thrush nightingales do it: by flying night after night and stopping during the day, when they remain innactive🐦➡️(1/3)
