Ruth Walker Art & Photography 💙: "I have been a bird ringer since 2008 and this has led me to some amazing places, including #seabird ringing expeditions to the Shiant Isles in Western Scotland." 🏝️ #SeabirdShowOff

(AL) We are continuing to receive calls about oiled #seabirds, primarily Guillemots, from all along the #Wicklow and #Wexford coast. If you find an oiled seabird in the coming days, do not touch it. This is for your own safety. Instead, follow the steps below 👇 #oilspill

Fantastic opportunity to join the RSPB Science marine team 🌊🐦 as a Project Manager (P/T) on an exciting tracking feasibility project | Deadline 5th June | shorturl.at/82UW5

Finally had my commissioned portrait of a gannet by Ruth Walker Art & Photography 💙 framed. Hung it this afternoon....

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE. Caithness guillemot cave 2020 with 700+ nesting guillemots, same cave 2024. Effects of bird flu and winter storms?

Just a couple more weeks until #CoimbraSeabirds Don't forget to check out the exciting program here: drive.google.com/file/d/1uPLwPk…

Can an old oil rig be a nature reserve? 🌊 Explore this question with BBC Rare Earth for a dose of marine-related listening. The SMP is increasingly receiving #seabird data from offshore structures, and hopefully there will be more survey data to come. 🔊bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Latest update on the Madeira Wildfires, another night and the fire gets closer. It’s now northwest of nesting ground. We believe that Zino’s Petrels are affected by smoke and fire. Although the fire has not reached the know nests yet it is moving north and could rotate east.

Whilst it has been a quiet year for HPAI, we still need to retain a watchful eye on the situation.

"Incorporating dive attributes within state-space modelling of seabird behaviour at-sea" Daniel Johnston shows how incorporating dive attributes refines our understanding of seabird activities at sea in razorbills and guillemots #CoimbraSeabirds 📊

Our team is at the #CoimbraSeabirds conference this week sharing the Marine Evidence Review, which scoped available evidence on the movements & spatial distributions of marine birds in & around Northern Ireland waters. It was instrumental in identifying data gaps for species

1/ Arctic Skuas are the fastest declining #seabirds in the UK. BTO Scotland has been trying to better understand their movements by fitting miniature, long-term tracking devices to birds nesting on Fair Isle in Shetland and Rousay in Orkney. Discover the results ⬇️ #BTOScience

A short article highlighting some of the results of our recent #seabird #bycatch paper 😉 hakaimagazine.com/videos-visuals…

Really pleased to see this study highlighting the impact of bycatch on European seabird populations.

1/ Climate change is a major threat to #seabirds. One mitigation approach to climate change, exploiting renewable energy through offshore wind farms, itself poses a potential threat to species like Kittiwake. Our recent study looked into this. Discover key findings ⬇️ #BTOScience

1/ A reminder to report all sightings of dead birds for possible testing for Avian Influenza. In England, Wales & Scotland, please contact Defra UK, in Northern Ireland get in touch with DAERA & in Republic of Ireland Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine for monitoring purposes. Thank you.

Scotland’s iconic seabirds are under threat. The draft Scottish Seabird Conservation Action Plan sets out how we can protect vulnerable seabird species together, safeguarding them for future generations. Take part in the consultation now at consult.gov.scot/marine-scotlan…
