More penguin molt research!
Journal of Experimental Biology@J_Exp_Biol
When most birds moult they are at risk of getting chilly, but not gentoo penguins. During their moult they growing a double layer, keeping the original feathers before shedding them, potentially causing them to overheat when its hot @alewden @AntoineStier journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22…

It's been a very worrying start to the season for Guillemots on the Isle of May, with large swathes of the cliffs remaining hauntingly empty...

What has happened to all the Isle of May guillemots? The first egg was the latest ever but adjusting for that we should still be peak laying now and the cliffs are terrifyingly empty. Even those that have laid don't seem committed and are losing their eggs at an alarming rate.1/2

Grim news for seabirds 💔
Bob Swann@SwannBob
EMPTY LEDGES. First visit to North Sutor colony revealed the extreme impact bird flu, storms and rising sea temps have had on seabirds. Cormorants down by 36% to only 86 nests, shags by 60% to 60 nests and Guillemots down by a massive 83% on last year.

Thin ice in the Ross Sea is exposing a major problem for Adélie penguins. 🐧
Declining sea ice in critical molting habitats endangers entire colonies, @PointBlueConSci scientists report. bit.ly/49pOIMC

Adélie penguin populations need breeding habitat to thrive in the Antarctic Ross Sea, but a study points out an underappreciated bottleneck for adult survival of the charismatic birds: sufficient sea ice upon which to safely rest during an annual molt. ow.ly/Srkn50Q6Z3K

Really excited to see this pub come out. Adélie penguins rely on sea ice for molting. It's been concerningly low at this critical time of year in the Ross Sea lately. Read more here: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

The U.S. Antarctic research program is in trouble, as canceled field seasons imperil data sets and demoralize researchers. #LongReads scim.ag/46b

Adélie penguin performing a characteristically athletic exit out of the water. Do you think this one stuck the landing?

"Those Krill really tie the ocean together, do they not?"
Today we celebrate the first #WorldKrillDay recognising this vital and mighty little creature.
Krill remind us of our deep connection with Antarctica as we consider future paths for life on our planet.

We unexpectedly lost Zoey today. She developed heart failure this afternoon, apparently cats can mask heart conditions until they become acute. Been with me since early grad school, heartbroken. #rainbowbridge #caturday
