1/🧵 Anthropogenic noise 🔊 is a growing 🌐 pressure on wildlife. Drone (UAS) noise 🚁🔊 is one emerging source. At #BOU2026 I’m sharing our research on how UAS noise impacts #birds and whether phylogeny + morphology predict species‑specific sensitivity. #ornithology #ecology #drones

🧵1/6 #BOU2026 #ornithology #bioacoustics #AI Investigating the impact of UAV noise on bird activity: A playback experiment How does UAV noise influence bird behaviour and vocal activity? We aim to address this using controlled, field-based playback experiments.

A great start to #BOU2025! Some very interesting keynotes from @judyshamounb.bsky.social and Benjamin Van Doren on the applications of radar for bird monitoring. Much to consider about how the technology could be applied to the effects of anthropogenic noise. @bou.org.uk @illinoispress.bsky.social
