🐣 What are nestlings really saying when they beg for food? After half a century of research the picture is more complex, and perhaps less conflict-driven, than classic models suggested Our review challenges key assumptions and calls for new models of family communication 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/brv....

Food‐solicitation displays in nestling birds: still begging for answers

Nestling begging is a key model for understanding animal communication and parent–offspring conflict. Dynamic begging displays are often interpreted as costly, honest signals of need, with honesty ma...

➡️ New study shows that reservoirs play a crucial role in conservation. While natural lakes face more severe and unpredictable conditions that limit the range of species able to survive, reservoirs allow species with key ecological functions to arrive and establish. www.ebd.csic.es/en/outreach/...

Japanese team have observed directly, for the first time, noctule bats hunting birds The images they provide astonishingly resemble that painted by Brueghel over 400 years ago... maybe he had actually seen the hunt!! Paper: esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @ebdonana.bsky.social

Natural history on canvas: Brueghel knew about bird-eating noctule bats Just published in @pnas.org, OA for all eyes Led by the one-and-only @romero-vidal.bsky.social, with the amazing @elena-tena.bsky.social and Sonia Sánchez-Navarro @ebdonana.bsky.social LINK: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Join us in a new #EBDSeminar this thursday!👇 🔹"Microbiota analyses in birds: Overview of interactions between hosts, microbiota and blood parasites" 🔸Vaidas Palinauskas (Nature Research Centre, Lithuania) 📅 10th September, 2026. 13:00h CEST

How can a sea star live in such different environments? 🌊⭐️ From the warm Mediterranean to the colder waters around the British Isles, Marthasterias glacialis thrives across very different conditions. Our new study may offer part of the answer⬇️ royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article...

Hidden genomic structure and widespread structural polymorphism across environmental gradients in the spiny sea star Marthasterias glacialis

Abstract. Genomic regions of reduced recombination can preserve linkage among co-adapted alleles, facilitating local adaptation despite high connectivity.

We are looking for a PhD student for the project: “The role of chromosomal inversions in the diversification of common quail across a heterogeneous landscape”, supervised by Carles Vilà and Carlos Leiva, at the Doñana Biological Station @ebdonana.bsky.social @consevol.bsky.social #evolquail

👉 En esta entrevista de @grodira.bsky.social, el investigador Ignasi Bartomeus explica la importancia de los polinizadores para los ecosistemas, alerta de su declive y propone restaurar hábitats, reducir plaguicidas y cambiar nuestra relación con la naturaleza. 🔗 www.ebd.csic.es/divulgacion/...

❌ Short-term funding, job insecurity, and pressure to publish may be limiting scientific creativity. These dynamics may be slowing scientific progress and the search for solutions to global challenges, with particularly pronounced effects on younger researchers. 👉 www.ebd.csic.es/en/outreach/...

🌎Hoy en día, sabemos cada vez más sobre la Antártida, su fauna, sus ecosistemas y su evolución. Sin embargo, más ciencia no significa necesariamente mejores decisiones. Nuestra investigadora Virginia Morandini aborda la paradoja de la Antártida en un artículo en @theconversation.com

La paradoja antártica: nunca supimos tanto sobre el continente helado, pero quizá no sabemos lo necesario

La investigación antártica actual produce una gran cantidad de información, pero no siempre genera el conocimiento necesario para guiar la protección de esta región cubierta de hielo.

☀️ En verano, Doñana se transforma. Los verdes se apagan, la marisma se va secando y el paisaje se viste de tonos terrosos, amarillos y rojizos. El calor y el sol parecen detener el tiempo, pero bajo esa apariencia de quietud, la vida continúa. @ictsdonana.bsky.social

⭐Las estrellas de mar del Mediterráneo y las islas británicas parecen una misma especie, sin diferencias 🧬Su genoma cuenta otra historia 🌊Un estudio de @ebdonana.bsky.social revela que casi un 20% del genoma se organiza de forma distinta según el ambiente 👉 https://tinyurl.com/425e9wc4
