Amur Bird Project

Ornithologists have discovered a previously unknown spring migration route taken by a Blue-and-white Flycatcher between its winter territory in the Philippines and breeding grounds in Russia: bit.ly/3tzZtsq

Our new paper uncovering the migration route of yet another little-known songbird moving along the #EastAsianFlyway:

In the second week, @MoMeinken and Johannes Amshoff focussed on the #Bluethroat project and tagged individuals with #geolocators - a cooperation with @Vogelwarte_scie Full story: amurbirding.blogspot.com/2021/12/abp-20…

For the first week our main target species was the Siberian #Rubythroat. We equipped birds with multi-sensor loggers to study their #migration, a cooperation with @johnsas_k, @lunduniversity, Oleg Bourski, Katya Demidova et al. Full story: amurbirding.blogspot.com/2021/06/abp-20…

Finally, reports from the #AmurBirdProject fieldwork 2021 in #Siberia are online. After a #covid19 related break in 2020, we were really happy to continue our #bird #tracking studies with our Russian colleagues! 1/3

How many birds take off, land or are in the air over the year? When and where are they moving through Europe? This paper by @rafnuss within @BiodivERsA3-funded @globam_net answers these questions and sets the basis for a lot of spin-off research!

After 400m of nets deployed and a bit of luck, these are probably the last two Richard's Pipits of the season that were equipped with GLS last evening in southern France. We wish them a safe journey !

Happy to see our recent update on the status of the #CriticallyEndangered Yellow-breasted Bunting highlighted by @BirdGuides birdguides.com/articles/signs…

A paper from an international team of ornithologists has provided a comprehensive update on the plight of the Critically Endangered Yellow-breasted Bunting, which suggests that there is cause for optimism for the imperilled species: bit.ly/3wP5lPc
