Our team from Seabird Ecology Lab has recovered some trips from a band-rumped #stormpetrel, a poorly-understood species! Photos and map from Adrián Pina Hidalgo, with fieldwork collaboration of Nela Tésaróva.

The volcanic islet of #MontañaClara in #CanaryIslands is the site of our latest field campaign on the band-rumped #StormPetrel ( #Hydrobatescastro ), an Endangered seabird in Spain. This population breeds in burrows mainly during winter -a rare and still little-understood strategy.

New #substack! Week two of #fieldwork in the Faroes for this year's Storm-petrel research season. Transects in vertical boulder scree, night-time ringing activities and some updates from the nestbox monitoring as the incubation gets underway... bardseyben.substack.com/p/like-a-fai...

Like a fairy being sick

Week two of Storm-petrel fieldwork in the Faroe Islands is underway, as summer's grasp begins to ebb and the nights draw in

Looking like a poor season for #Puffins in the #Faroes from local accounts and observations so far - lots of adults still feeding young chicks which should have fledged by this time of year, many dead chicks in the colony and very low numbers in general :( any others finding similar? #seabirds

I really enjoyed watching this short film about Prof. Tim Birkhead’s long-term study of guillemots on Skomer island. What a legacy, arising from a relentless commitment to careful long-term monitoring.
