Saving swifts, understanding climate | Giulia Masoero

A collaborative project with wildlife rescue centres across Europe to understand how heatwaves and extreme weather affect swift nestlings and fledglings, using large-scale rescue and admission data.

Buffy, naive young Black-tailed Godwits and Redshanks. How quickly do juvenile waders become proficient food-finders? wadertales.wordpress.com/2026/02/05/l... Paper by Josh Nightingale #ornithology

Excited to share our new paper: “How to run a language-inclusive international conference”. rdcu.be/fs8cJ At #ICCB2025, we implemented language-accessibility measures to support 1,890 participants from 90 countries/territories, and we showed they worked (see Fig S2)! #languagebarriers 1/5

🐦🌙 Happy to see this big collaborative paper out in @currentbiology.bsky.social! We address a seemingly simple question using geolocator data collected across many species and individuals: how much of bird migration actually happens at night? www.cell.com/current-biol... A short🧵

🚨 Exciting news! The Swiss Ornithological Institute is starting a collaborative program that offers multi-sensor geolocators and analytical support for bird migration research, focusing on underrepresented species & regions. Interested? geopressure.org/GeoCollabForm/ Please share!

8 chapters (5 data chapters); 4 field seasons; 20(ish) GPS loggers; 167 GPS deployments; 156 stable isotope feather samples. 2.5 hours of dynamic discussion. No corrections. Ph.Done. 🥹 Thank you everyone who supported me along this wild journey. Beyond stoked. What a way to end #SwiftAwarenessWeek!

NEW JOB in #ornithology and #conservation to identify the most important marine areas to protect #seabirds: buff.ly/vhssgkY

Submitted my PhD. Absolutely stoked. Thank you to everyone who supported me and to those I met along the way. It’s been a journey. And thanks, of course, to these gremlins. Time to crack on with the remaining manuscripts. Bring on the viva!

#InternationalVultureAwarenessDay! Thinking of all this year’s fledglings & the threats they’re going to face; mostly anthropogenic. Vultures just go about their lives keeping the natural world clean while humans set it on fire. Tough, but it’s important to hold on to hope & conservation successes.

Reflecting on #BESMove2025, nice couple days chatting all things #MovementEcology and meeting friends old & new. Thank you @besmovesig.bsky.social and the meeting organisers for your hard work to deliver a stacked and smooth running schedule and fun socials. Looking forward to the next one!

✨ New preprint! "Too few, too many, or just right?" 🌍🌎🌏 We explore how to evaluate study design in animal tracking studies by assessing sampling duration, interval, and, now, the number of individuals needed for reliable population-level estimates. #movementecology www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It’s already been a week since #EOU2025! Fun week meeting and chatting cool bird science & geeking out at the cool tech! Presented another poster made from my tent in Bulgaria. 😅 Even got work done on the 14hr train journey, 🌱 but France took my Leatherman; rookie error not checking my field pack! 🥲
