It was a great pleasure to present my work on the effects of ALAN (see here: doi.org/10.1098/rsbl...) on the predation of ground-based insects at @ecbb2026.bsky.social. Thanks for having me!

European Conference on Behavioural Biology@ecbb2026.bsky.social · last mo.

#ECBB2026 staying in the spotlight, we had @gregoryeckhartt.bsky.social sharing his works on how streetlights may decrease predation of ground-based insects

Our very own @tapintothewild.bsky.social presented work from two of her PhD chapters on #elephant #postures and human-elephant interactions at @ecbb2026.bsky.social last week!! Amazing work and fabulous talk 🐘🌍👏🏻 #ECBB2026

Great few days at #ECBB2026 in Cambridge: great talks, great people, and plenty of ideas to bring home 🧠🐔 And, of course, I kept spreading the chicken agenda: they’re not just farm animals, but fascinating models for understanding behavior and cognition.

Had a great time at #ECBB2026? Don’t worry, there are more conferences coming! There’s #ASABWinter2026 (@asabpsgb2026.bsky.social, full but can still join online), #ASABSpring2027 (@asab-meetings.bsky.social) in Portsmouth & #Behaviour2027 (@behaviour2027.bsky.social) in Vienna Make sure to follow!

Dr Sylvain Lemoine @cam-archaeology.bsky.social closed the Symposium on "Primates in the Anthropocene: the ecology of adaptive behavioural responses" @ecbb2026.bsky.social with a talk on behavioural adaptive traditions in the Gibraltar Barbary macaques #macaques #anthropocene #Gibraltar #ECBB2026

@vernouilleta.bsky.social & Elias Garcia-Pelegrin put together such an interesting and varied symposium on Social Cognition in a Human World #ECBB2026 🌍🐤

Everyone said go punting in Cambridge, so I did as instructed at #ECBB2026 Can you spot who we are taking the selfie with?

Thanks for the shout out at #ECBB2026 ! We’re looking forward to having everyone join us next summer for #Behaviour2027 in Vienna 🤗 Our call for symposia is now open: behaviour2027.eventsairsite.com

ICYMI at #ECBB2026... it has been announced that #ECBB2028 will be in Dublin Ireland🇮🇪 and the conference dinner will be at the Guinness Storehouse!🤩🤯 What about 2027?
