This is not the moment to call defeat. There is a chance we can stop this infectious virus, this time at least.

Fishing is not allowed within wind farms; therefore, discard-feeding seabirds may appear to avoid wind farm areas. We found that most Lesser Black-backed Gulls avoided the wind farm area, but not eac....

Background European Common Terns’ migration routes along the eastern Atlantic flyway and wintering areas in western and southern Africa were identified in ringing studies. Recent tracking studies reve...

For the past decade, Sue Schubel has been making detailed decoys of terns, puffins and other seabirds to entice real ones to restored or new homes

Collecting GPS positions on bird movements requires secure and efficient attachment methods that maintain animal welfare. For seabirds, one of the most threatened bird groups globally, non-permanent a...

Climate change is causing ocean warming, acidification and loss of sea ice. This, in turn, is leading to shifting biogeographic distribution and in some cases species extinction.

Loggers have become a central part of research on seabirds and other groups of animals over the past 20 years. In seabird research, loggers provide very useful documentation of diving behaviour…

Wild seabirds are more likely to split up in windy weather, according to a new study involving the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.

Abstract. Monitoring of seabird population size and demography has for decades relied on observer-based methods. While such methods have allowed the accumu

The rapid pace of human-related development and environmental instability has placed significant pressure on global ecosystems, threatening the existe…

Plastic consumption in seabirds causes blood signatures of widespread organ damage including brain, stomach, kidney, and liver.

This study used predation survey techniques (citizen science) in order to quantify prey return rates across the UK, along with potential influencing factors. Although between 37 and 140 million prey ...

Most Icelandic Oystercatchers leave Iceland in the autumn, crossing the Atlantic and arriving in Ireland, the UK and mainland Europe. Despite much shorter day-length and colder conditions, 30% spen…

Lors de la création d'un livre, il faut toujours réfléchir très vite à sa couverture. Voici comment est née celle de "l'éthologie (presque) facile" en collaboration avec l'illustratrice Marine Joumard...

Scientific Reports - Night flight facilitates late breeding catch-up in a long-distance migratory seabird

The increase of plastic pollution represents a significant ecological threat, particularly in human-impacted environments. However, the effects of pla…
