It is shameful that you are trashing @RSPBEngland and citizens’ concerns @DerekThomasUK @BillWigginMP @mikejwood @GregClarkMP @trussliz.

I stand with the RSPB and @WildlifeTrusts @nationaltrust @IoloWilliams2 @ChrisGPackham @MarkAvery. #PavementProtests

Congratulations @HamzaYassin3. I can't think of any other strictly winners who've spent time ringing waders as part of a @_BTO survey.

[Katharine Bowgen @modelbirder]

Really excited to see our article on identifying Curlew breeding status from GPS tracks in @Ecol_Evol! Many thanks to all our co-authors who've helped get this published. The work was funded by @NatResWales following @RSPBScience funding pilot tags. https://t.co/BRTSrj8c82

Over 50,000 people have viewed these #swifts. If only as many had signed #TheFeatherSpeech to help these individual birds who will not land for up to 3 years from now and would directly benefit from the petition ask. #EveryBirdCounts sign➡️https://t.co/lboVopCb89 #conservation

Thank you

Phalaropese 101: this call by a Red-necked Phalarope dad is warning his chicks to hide, because a potential threat is near (in this case, a biologist). Phalaropes have a number of different calls to convey alarm, communicate with their mate or their flock. #PhalaropePhriday

[Shire Jewels @ShireJewels]

Been wanting to capture this for so many years & wouldn't let lack of light get in the way. Last time I almost had it set-up a drone came through dispersing all the birds. World's largest wader (eastern curlew) with one of the smallest (red-necked stint).

[Iolo Williams @IoloWilliams2]

Corrupt to the core….

[nicola crockford @numenini]

Presumably these were installed before 2019 when the National Administration for Forests and Grasslands (NFGA) issued new regulations banning the construction of new windfarms in sensitive migratory bird flyways, among other categories of location?

[Graham Appleton @GrahamFAppleton]

Great talk by John Calladine at @_BTO conference this evening - planning for more trees without messing things up for breeding #waders.
Two recent blogs explain why this is important:

RSPB Cors Ddyga looking stunning this morning with hundreds of waterfowl & snipe. Well done @RSPBCymru, shows what can be done for wildlife. Black-necked grebe and curlew sandpiper were a bonus

[Graham Appleton @GrahamFAppleton]

Fascinating insights into flocking behaviour - using tracking.

BUT has anyone picked up signs of #waders doing 'training' before taking off on 1000 km flights.
Can they build up muscle without exercising?

[Graham Appleton @GrahamFAppleton]

A sad tale of disappearing #waders.
One man's efforts to chart 25-years of losses from Scottish farmland.
