@NaturelsWeird Fascinating - but please, if the bird is so endangered, don't get so close to it, and certainly don't chase it off its eggs.

The potoo bird demonstrating its excellent camouflage skills!

@CrinanJarrett Congratulations!! And see you soon in Switzerland👏

Excited to be on the organising team bringing @EOUnion meeting to Lund #EOU2023Lund @Biology_LU @lunduniversity #birds #ornithology

@eou2022giessen It has been such a tough decision but in the end there was no alternative. Let's make the most of the slim online meeting - save the date of 15 March!

@ClaireBranston Very cool!!

It's time to submit your abstract for the #EOU2022 in Gießen! 📢 Deadline 31 July 2021! Abstracts can be submitted for a symposium talk, an oral session, or a poster. The list of symposia can be found here: conference.eounion.org/2022/list-of-s… #ornithology Photo by @rickyalba26

When scientists found Wood Warblers molting on farms, they were thrilled! While no farm can replace a forest, the findings of a new study suggests cocoa agriculture doesn't need to be a threat to biodiversity if nearby forests are protected. @ENosazeogie audubon.org/news/scientist…

Symposia for the EOU Conference 2022 in Gießen are now online: conference.eounion.org/2022/list-of-s… Open slots are available - abstract submission opens in May! @eou2022giessen #EOU2022 #ornithology

Save the Date 🗓️ 🐦 Until the 15h of March you can still submit your symposia proposal for the 13th EOU conference in Gießen 2022. ECRs are especially encouraged to do so! Any details on how your proposal should look like you can find here: eounion.org/latest-news/ca… @DanC_eco

my first ever paper, out now!! 🐦✨ we used radio telemetry & faecal metabarcoding during the breeding season to discover urban blue tits are getting a hard deal in life check it out: doi.org/10.1007/s00442…

@EOUnion @IBAHCM We have several PhD openings in Groningen (masters required at start of PhD). Many involve birds, ecology and physiology, see rug.nl/education/phd-… The closing date for applications is April 2nd. I'm happy to provide details.

#EU's common #agricultural #policy #CAP destroys nature and needs an urgent, serious reform! An open letter to EU parliament from scientists around Europe, including European Ornithologists' Union #EOU Please RT! eounion.org/latest-news/op…

@engler_j Hi Jan, could you please help with the EOU twitter account, see our emails? It's on the agri policies. Thanks!

@EOU2019Cluj Great fit in attitude with the Cluj organizers! You'll find they've gone out of their way to reduce the ecological footprint on site as well!

What a noble gesture to reduce the ecological footprint of scientific conferences. You're wonderful! Hope your journey was all right.

@EOUnion Hurry! This is the end of early-bird registration nearing ... save your pennies now and enjoy Romania!

What? The deadline for #EOU2019 is almost there? For all sleepy owls, we just have extended the deadline for two more weeks!

Even the Brexiteers seem to have their bright moments. Embarassing how quickly they forget. Great march today in London, and now 4.5 mio British voters asking to revoke
