Are you at #BES2025? Come along to our popular annual social event from 16:00-19:30 on Tuesday at the Innis & Gunner Tap Room! #movecol @britishecologicalsociety.org
A poster for the annual movement ecology social event that takes place as part of the British Ecological Society's annual meeting. There are photos of several different tagged animals (e.g. lion, sloth) and the text reads:
"Wanna chat about movement ecology? Meet us at Innis & Gunner Tap Room, 81-83 Lothian Road, Edinburgh, EH3 9AW."

What a great and welcoming community at #BESMove2025! Was a real pleasure to share a cultural perspective on #bird #migration based on field and tracking studies of raptors and shorebirds.

Our final plenary was by @aldinafranco.bsky.social taking us through 10 years of movement ecology at our host institution, UEA. Interesting insights from the reintroduced white storks in the UK, and a brief mention of boulder tagging to track landslides! #BESMove2025
Aldina presenting to an audience in front of a presentation titled "A decade of movement ecology at UEA: the birds and the rolling stones"

This morning's talks have been on the theme of threats to migration and other movement behaviours. We've heard about adult vs juvenile migration strategies, dispersal and wildlife corridors, human-driven causes of mortality, prey depletion/displacement and more! #BESMove2025

This year's meeting theme is Understanding Migration. So far we've learned lots about how migration and flocking are affected by energetics, memory, personality and safe sea passages, from studies on storks, pigeons and falcons #BESMove2025

"After we confirmed that jaguars lived in trees during the floods, we expected them to use smaller core areas of their home ranges to conserve energy. But they didn’t..." Check out the latest blog from @besmovesig.bsky.social to learn about the adaptability of jaguars in the Amazon! 🌍🧪🦊
