Barometric geolocators are game changers when in comes to tracking small birds! Read our new perspective paper lead by Garrett Rhyne in Ornithology: doi.org/10.1093/ornith… | #ornithology #birdmigrtion | Raphaël Nussbaumer Vogelwarte_Science

Izskatās, ka mājas strazdam ļoti vajadzējis dēt olu - ligzda nav taisīta, būrī tikai tā saucamās "greznumlietas". Pēc iepriekšējas pieredzes zinu, ka tālāk nekas tomēr netiks taisīts un ola tā arī parasti paliek neperēta. Arī Dr. Aivars Mednis uzskatīja par ligzdu sākot ar 2 olām

So excited to be a part of #HiRAD: a new project creating a standardised aerial biodiversity monitoring system using radars! The project, led by Silke Bauer, kicked off last week in Belgium! With this we will be able to monitor insect and bird movements right across Europe!!

Tā nu sanāca, ka #TorņuCīņas2024 komanda “Sturnus” 14 komandu konkurencē ieguva 1. vietu! Superīgi pavadīta nedēļas nogale

Fifteen years minus one day between these photos. Taken at the Rhone glacier in Switzerland today. Not gonna lie, it made me cry.

If, like me, you find it fascinating that small migratory birds reach altitudes of 5,000 or 6,000m when crossing ecological barriers, check out our new preprint. We equipped 16 nocturnal migratory species with multi-sensor loggers to study their migration: tinyurl.com/2xs7nvaz

In a new study, Martins Briedis and co-authors monitored haemosporidian parasitism in a Latvian starling population over 4 breeding seasons. For results, click here: doi.org/10.1002/wlb3.0….

Common Whitethroat is one the most numerous Afro-Palearctic migrant, yet our knowledge of the species' migration ecology remains limited. By combining ring-recovery analyses with geolocator tracking, Martins Briedis et al. describe migrations routes and more link.springer.com/article/10.100…
