#ObservingNature Colchicum montanum "They are also known as meadow saffron. The names refer to the flowers, which emerge "naked" from the ground in the fall before their leaves appear in the spring" Cattle avoid it 🙋🏿 #ValdAran #BassadOles

#bird #migration "Each year(..) glands in its body release hormones into its system. Environmental cues, including the gradually changing day length as days get shorter in late summer and longer in early spring, cause this to happen automatically" rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wild…

#ObservingNature "The impacts of #wildfires may result in long-lasting effects to social, #environmental, and economic systems. In a context of global heating (...), it is crucial to respond with more robust preparedness and planning" data.effis.emergency.copernicus.eu/effis/reports-…

#ObservingNature "“We are building everywhere to host tourists,” Fournaris says. “There is no place anymore for nature.” #Birds, #Climate conditions & other hurdles 👇 magma-mag.net/hotter-summers…

#ObservingNature "some #bird species may benefit temporarily from fire-damaged areas, but their responses vary depending on the species and conditions of the #fire" pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12…

#ObservingNature "“There’s three main options to avoid air pollution,” Overton explains. “Go around it, go over it, and decrease your energetic use. And these birds tried to do all three.” They didn’t always succeed" more 👇 audubon.org/news/new-study…

#ObservingNature #wildfires "Apart from directly affecting #birds’ health, #smoke can also alter their behavior with resulting changes to body condition" allaboutbirds.org/news/is-the-sm…

#ObservingNature "Forest fires are often started naturally by lightning, and historically, many Indigenous Peoples across #Canada practiced ‘cultural burning’ – controlled fires as part of cultural and family practices that mimic natural patterns of burns" birdscanada.org/birds-in-the-l…

#ObservingNature "as fire seasons in the West lengthen, scientists are concerned that smoke may hinder more #migrations along the Pacific Flyway. Many #shorebirds and #songbirds are unable to store the extra energy needed to reroute around #fires" hcn.org/articles/north….

#ObservingNature "As #wildfires grow in frequency and severity due to climate change and forest mismanagement, #birds and other species are being forced to adapt" How? 👇 hcn.org/articles/what-….

#ObservingNature "Avian #migration is a natural process, whereby different #birds fly over distances of hundreds and thousands of kilometres in order to find the best ecological conditions and habitats for feeding, breeding and raising their young" 👇 worldmigratorybirdday.org/2014/index23c2…

#observingNature "‘#Migration is dangerous for many reasons.’ (..) loss of stopover sites due to climate change or the passage of species thru different countries with different environmental policies, legislation and conservation measures" #birds sciencemediacentre.es/en/migratory-b…

#observingnature "study with the participation of the Doñana Biological Station (CSIC) shows that most of the #plants in Europe are dispersed by #birds that #migrate to warmer areas in autumn" ebd.csic.es/en/outreach/ne…

#Observingnature #migration "Other navigational tools include landmarks that the birds can learn, as well as the position of the stars and the sun. #Birds can determine the latter even in cloudy skies thanks to their ability to perceive UV light" plantura.garden/uk/garden-bird…

#observingnature #migration "The birds that breed in northern Europe set off on a journey in autumn. They make their way in stages to the mild and warm areas of European and Africa, which are their winter-feeding grounds" labayru.eus/en/basque-ethn…
