Very happy to help out with this new @animalecology paper led by @JoeyWayman which uses long-term BTO data to examine the (very complex) processes of biotic homogenization and heterogenization in UK bird species. https://t.co/WFOxLKqW12

#IDEALFire fieldwork kicking off today. Tara leading a team collecting biodiversity and soil data in heathland ecosystems to understand the effects of different management practices.

NB I am safely locked in my office as I am a liability in the field.

Very pleased to get this @JBiogeography article out with @dhaelewa @txm676 @JoeyWayman et al. - its been in the pipeline for ages! Danny's thread sums up the main points well, but, in brief summary:

The Blackbird colour-ringing project is in full swing, with more than 50 birds ringed! The most valuable data though, comes from sightings, so if you manage to spot one and see the colour ring please email or message me the location and two letter colour-ring code 📨🐦‍⬛

@tommartin2013 Still counts! I was about to say you also don't need to see any other bird from the family Balaenicipitidae, but then I saw its the only extant one anyway haha

[Tom Martin @tommartin2013]

Our new paper on anthropocene island bird diversity-area relationships, led by @txm676, was just published in @Ecology_Letters. Very pleased to help with this one, which shows changing patterns in 51 archipelagos as species go extinct, or are introduced: https://t.co/YTHkXy1brt

Matthews et al. find large body mass, flightlessness, marine habitat affinity and higher dispersal ability are among the #traits driving #extinction risk of #island endemic #birds. Threatened endemics represent unique functional space @JBiogeography

[Joe Tobias @ja_tobias]

The analysis illustrated here combines trait data of extant birds (AVONET) with measurements of extinct species. It shows we already lost many unusual island bird lineages and, unless conservation efforts are successful, we risk losing many more

A synthesis of the hundreds of extinct and threatened island endemic birds: what they look like, where they are found, and what their loss means for island ecosystems 🐦🏝
