Impressive work by Cam Nemeth (not on BlueSky). We hypothesized that the significant lift force produced by the humpback whale’s large pectoral flippers result in them being the only species executing tight, high-speed, sustained turns characteristic of bubble-net feeding doi.org/10.1242/jeb....

The key to bubble-net feeding: how humpback whale morphology functionally differs from other baleen whales

Summary: Humpback whale turning performance during solitary bubble-net feeding exceeds the observed capabilities of other baleen whales.

You can find the first JEB additional language abstract by Cameron Nemeth and colleagues in #Hawaiian accompanying their paper, The key to bubble-net feeding: how humpback whale morphology functionally differs from other baleen whales at journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

New paper on scaling of field metabolic rate in baleen whales! By the big whale lab at @stanfordhopkins.bsky.social and friends. 🐋 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Life in the slowest lane: Feeding allometry lowers metabolic rate scaling in the largest whales

Rorqual whales use “lunge-and-filter” gait to maintain low metabolic rates during foraging despite high-cost feeding strategy.

We banded these fluffballs a few days ago. Here is hoping for a few more weeks in the nest and then three successful fledglings. #UWGB #falcons 🪶 Follow along here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=HN0R...

A two-year post doc at the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn in Napoli, working on biologging in Mediterranean fin whales. The announcement is in Italian, but it is open to foreign researchers, and the working language at the station is English 🐳🧪🌍: www.szn.it/images/bandi...

Really excited that our Peregrine Falcons are back and nesting, after an unsuccessful year. #UWGB 🪶. Follow along here: www.youtube.com/@uw-greenbay...

Office window birding is going-off today. Notable sightings include a bald eagle, the resident peregrines, cooper's hawk, a kettle of migrating turkey vultures, a handful of turkeys, and some very spooked pigeons.

🚨 It's finally here! 🚨 I’m excited to share my latest for @snexplores.bsky.social. 1.5 years in the making, this feature dives into the discoveries that helped show why birds are our last remaining dinosaurs. Twiggy the Barred Owl & I are sure you'll learn a thing or two about birds! 🦉

Dinosaurs are still alive. Today, we call them birds

Birds don’t look like the scaly giants of Jurassic World. But fossils are revealing how these modern-day dinosaurs descended from ancient reptiles.

Late winter Lake Michigan hike. Not really #backcountry, (more like sidecountry) but I do want this to get picked up by my customized Outdoor Adventure feed.

The NASA climate change site is a fantastic resource for the general public, from a trusted source. I use it in a lot of my classes. I'd imagine it will be taken down soon. Are there any archives of this site? Any comparable sites from other trusted sources? 🧪🌍 science.nasa.gov/climate-chan...

As a lifelong Sonic fan, I had loads of fun writing this for @snexplores.bsky.social's 'Technically Fiction' series! Many thanks to @paolosegre.bsky.social and Dr. Hassanalian for their insights. www.snexplores.org/article/soni...

To clear loops, Sonic the Hedgehog must hit the right speed

Most animals don’t run through loops. Sonic would need the physics behind roller coasters and race cars to clear one.

A few more hours until this closes. So if you're an evolutionary biologist interested in a teaching-first institution (but with plenty of research opportunities), please consider applying! 🌎 www.uwgb.edu/jobs/positio...
