In honour of the recent #InternationalSawfishDay, I created an infographic on the incredible paper by @SharkColin and colleagues on the use of #eDNA analysis to detect #sawfish in the wild! Skills development in my @ExeterMarine #MVEC MSc with @VJHobson & @BrendanGodley (1/3)

Thank you Ma’am, for everything.

@HannahLightley @WoodEcology has a fantastic YouTube series on sci com animation 👇 youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Any #recommendations for courses to help with animation / video production for #scicomm purposes?? #ScienceTwitter

@Harriet_Dives The BEST morning!! 🐬🌊💙

Exciting #SharksNearMe find down on Castle Beach, Falmouth this afternoon! RIP to this beautiful small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) 💀 These are the most common #shark found in UK waters and live in shallow areas less than 100m deep, feeding on 🦀 🐚 and small 🐠

Happy #WorldAlbatrossDay! Albatrosses are one of the most threatened bird groups due to climate change, overfishing & bycatch. My #MVEC MSc project will look at whether nest predation may cause accelerated popn declines, using long-term monitoring data from Bird Island @BAS_News

If this doesn't convince my #MVEC coursemates that #seabirds are the best marine verts I don't know what will.. Ace afternoon helping collect puffin poop samples on @skomer_island for a microbiome study. Thanks to @AnnetteFayet for letting me tag along, and for our photoshoot!🌞

Super excited to be starting work on my thesis investigating impacts of nest flooding events on #SeaTurtle nesting success on #AscensionIsland with @NicolaWeber! Finally beginning to feel like a Real Scientist™️ and member of @ExeterMarine's #SquirtleSquad 😎🐢

🚨 NEW SHARK SCIENCE!! 🚨 Awesome research by @ElasmoBryan and colleagues provides the first empirical evidence that #sharks use the Earth's magnetic field to navigate 🦈🧲👏 Check out the paper and video abstract below 👇 cell.com/current-biolog…

@MaudPhilippot Especially Michael 😂🦭

That #beachday was indeed amazing so happy to have seen all that #wildlife !🐋🐦

The Manta Team are delighted that the Fisheries Ministry has confirmed that the Maldives will not lift it’s decade old shark ban 🦈💙

@Lu_Clementin0 @MarineVertsMSc @megan_l_francis @BrendanGodley @StuBearhop @_KMETCALFE @ruththurstan @LiamLangley1 @VJHobson @ExeterMarine Such gorgeous shots!! 😍👏

What an incredible ending to #FestivalofFieldwork! A few highlights: SO many Basking🦈(Cetorhinus maximus) off Penzance - at least 5 individuals, but we came across them 8 or 9 times?! AND my first encounter with the gorgeous Puffins (Fratercula arctica) in the Isles of Scilly.

@mattwall30 @UniExeCEC @mindtheTrapp Aw sadly not 😂 my SD card wiped again as we were leaving so it's aaaall gone 💔

@TiffBond5 @UniExeCEC @mindtheTrapp Thanks Tiff! Hope your videos came out well 📸

A sunny day trip to Lundy for the MVEC #FestivalofFieldwork yesterday. Great diversity to see including Skylark, Meadow pipits, Wheatear, Teal, Puffins, Grey seals and many more. Thanks to the Lundy wardens and @UniExeCEC staff as well as @mindtheTrapp for ID'ing everything!

Fantastic morning on the water with our #MVEC #FestivalOfFieldwork !! 3 cetacean species in all, including these gorgeous common dolphins 🐬🐬🐬 Biggest thank you to Captain Keith and Georgia at @ak_cruises 🙏 #DayOfTheDolphin #NationalDolphinDay @ExeterMarine @MarineVertsMSc

Accurate representation of how every piece of masters coursework has gone down 🙃😅

@Lu_Clementin0 @NTU_ARES Amazing 👏👏 Would've loved to hear your talk! 😍🐬

I had the opportunity to be interviewed by @NTU_ARES about the recent presentation I did on my undergraduate dissertation. It was such a pleasure to share my work! If you are interested, you can read about it in the link below🐬

Shark divers brought over USD $65 million to the Maldivian economy in 2016. Sharks are worth more to us all alive 🦈 Please support #SaveOurSharks and keep #Maldives a sanctuary for #sharks. bit.ly/2PM4Rs4
