Back from "Birds Without Borders", great meeting of youth @birdlifeeurope.bsky.social groups from 🇨🇿, 🇸🇰, 🇵🇱, 🇭🇷 and 🇭🇺. I was glad to present my research on seasonal shifts in migratory bird habitat preferences, showing how eBird data can reveal spatiotemporal patterns useful for science & conservation

Did you know? More than half of the 650 species of North American breeding birds migrate. Discover the basics how, why and where in this article: www.allaboutbirds.org/news/the-bas... #birds #birding

Happy to be at #EOU2025! 🐦🏙️ If you want to know, how does urbanization impact migratory bird seasonal distribution (and you didn't manage to come to my poster yesterday), don't hesitate to find me and ask! @eounion.bsky.social

Zakládání nových tůní nemusí vždy krajině prospět. Často dochází k ničení kvalitních mokřadních biotopů, ústupu jejich specializovaných druhů, zhoršování kvality vody a vysychání okolní krajiny. www.ceskenoviny.cz/zpravy/oblib...

Oblíbené budování tůní může krajině spíš škodit než pomáhat, míní experti | ČeskéNoviny.cz
Praha - Oblíbené hloubení tůní jako opatření proti suchu může například v zemědělské nížinné krajině na jižní Moravě mnohdy napáchat víc škody než užitku. ČTK to řekli odborníci z Masarykovy univerzit...

Long time no see! So many cool things happened since I posted on Bluesky previously. So, here’s a little update thread!🧵

Last weekend, I went a little south of Spain with our little fellow Czech group. The goal was to see the distinctly different Spanish landscape, ecosystems, and animals that live here - and also, if possible, spot the Iberian #lynx 🐱

Found this very nice alien-egg-looking thing today! Even if it doesn't look like a classic mushroom, it is a #fungus - probably Peziza vesiculosa (CZ: řasnatka vosková)

A very nice citizen science project on mapping black redstarts wintering in urban areas. The data from the last two years look more than interesting - can't wait to see this year's results! 🌇🐦

Little Madrid diary 3 Out of many species that are super-hard to see in Czechia, yet are absolutely common here, vultures are truly exceptional for me. I still remember the first time I went to the supermarket here, and one flew just about 20m above my head!🤯Though I didn't see one that close again🙁

Good news! However, it is sad that instead of trying sustainable forestry nationwide, we have to celebrate small successes in relatively little national park.

BREAKING: The latest #COP29 text falls woefully short. The finance package is too low, too weak, while critical acknowledgement of nature has been entirely erased. This is more than disappointing, it's dangerous. 🚨 Leaders—don't walk away without fixing this.
A lone Puffin stands in silhouette on a grassy cliff, framed by a vivid orange sunset. Its distinctive beak and rounded form are stark against the fading light, evoking both beauty and fragility. The scene captures a quiet urgency, reflecting the gravity of nature's erasure from the latest #COP29 text.

#Throwback to 2 weeks ago - To celebrate 5 years of Ornitologická akademie - youth section of @birdlifecz.bsky.social, we got together with our members (all from secondary school to PhD students) and shared how each of us is involved in #ornithology. Great weekend full of inspiration (and party)!🎂🎉🐦

Lil Madrid diary 2: It's always fun to set up few #trailcams in the wild, whenever you're on a new place! So when I arrived in Madrid, I left one right behind the city, and one little bit more far away. Yesterday I picked up the closer one - even though no rare animals showed up, it's still nice 🐗🐦

Lil Madrid diary 1: Surprisingly, I'm blown away by the brownfields around Madrid, and their nature - I wouldn't expect it to be possible to see a flock of red-legged partridge so close, or hundreds of doves flying around one bin. I definitely want to focus more on the "brownfield ecosystem" one day

🌾 Slovakia’s steppe birds need your help! 🐦 In an outrageous move, Slovakia’s Minister of Environment has refused to fund a vital #LIFEproject designed to save steppe habitats and endangered bird species—claiming that “Slovakia doesn’t have steppes.” This couldn’t be further from the truth.
