The endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper K9's spring migration from Thailand exceeded expectations, with a 19-day stopover in Jiangsu, China. It continued to Sakhalin & then reached a new breeding area in Russia! These insights will help inform critical conservation actions @SBS_TF

Had a great time talking about how cute Eels are @WWTconservation Research Day! And also about how they use floodplain ponds (but mostly about why they are cute). #WWTResearch Well done to everyone who presented and thanks to everyone who organised today!

Researcher @MTaylorResearch presents his latest results of the use of woody dams in natural flood management. His work shows that woody dams slow the flow of water & mitigate the effects of flooding. #WWTResearch 1/2

& #SAVCurlews 2023 is off! First Curlew nest found today, a clutch of three eggs belonging to a male that was headstarted from @WWTSlimbridge & his partner. White "67" as he is known, at 4 years old, becomes the second headstarted Curlew to be found nesting in our study area! 💫

Wow! What an amazing day at WWT’s Conservation Evidance Research Day, showcasing the leading evidence-based projects. I gave my first professional presentation on my research on using eDNA to identify Black-tailed godwit (Limosa limosa limosa) egg predators using eDNA techniques.

@Sophiehwildlife @Laurabees01 We look forward to that Sophie!

Staying with fish, @MackayAbi updates us on #WWTResearch on the European Eel, a Critically Endangered species whose numbers have dropped by 98% since 1980! 1/3

#WWTResearch aimed to understand more about how #wetlands impact health & wellbeing. Research into nature prescribing shows that time spent in nature & at #wetlands reduces symptoms of anxiety & depression, reduces social isolation & improved physical health.
