Field season is ramping up in Bergen! A clutch of 11 blue tit eggs which will (hopefully) hatch soon. @amennerat.bsky.social

My first co-authored paper was published yesterday! Very grateful to have contributed to this work. Thanks to all the co-authors — especially Giuseppe for taking the reins and making it happen!

@freyacoursey.bsky.social's poster, showing the first preliminary data from her first PhD season, got quite a number of visitors at #EOU2025. Well done, and thanks to data & sample contributors and of course, to @spibirds.bsky.social for facilitating such large-scale studies 🙂 #ornithology

Last captures and last chicks ringed today, 9th monitoring season and @freyacoursey.bsky.social's 1st PhD season successfully completed ✅ Finally a good year for our breeding tits! despite the pine marten taking some late broods... my fingertips will now recover from those fighter females 😉

And so it starts for @freyacoursey.bsky.social's first PhD field season, and our 9th year of monitoring for Bergen... Found not only the first eggs a few days ago (😮), but also the first caterpillars today, in our newly set up urban sites.
