The final instalment of my PhD is out. A pleasure to work alongside @RoosKentie to examine the survival and reproductive consequences of different migration strategies in lesser black-backed #gulls.

Verschillende migratiestrategieën van kleine mantelmeeuwen hebben geen negatief effect op hun overleving en voortplanting, blijkt uit onderzoek van onder meer @RoosKentie van @IBED_UvA en @NIOZnieuws https://t.co/VZVzGToGzR

The paper I moved continents to write. Thanks again to my co-authors @BaranesJudy @BartNolet Kees Camphuysen and Willem Bouten. @IBED_UvA @niooknaw @NIOZnieuws

What are the energetic consequences of migrating far vs staying near? For lesser black backed #gulls, it turns out, there aren't many! Now #OpenAccess in @SciReports: https://t.co/cuZEpYHOhd.

[Morgan Brown @MBrown_Ecology]

How does acceleration compare to heart rate and time-energy budgets for estimating energy expenditure within and across #gull movement modes, and DEE throughout a breeding season? My most challenging study to date is now out in @FunEcology! #biologging https://t.co/H0NygC5wBr

How do prey out-maneuver bigger, faster predators?

I wrote a blog about my recent @AnimalEcology paper on repeatability of #gull #migration across different migration strategies! Check it out: https://t.co/aPzUQYfSZO

[Journal of Animal Ecology @AnimalEcology]

Flexible or Familiar? In this #StoryBehindThePaper @MBrown_Ecology from @IBED_UvA tells us why they investigated individual variation in migratory behavior of #gulls using different #migration strategies”

@JGCecere @AnimalEcology Thanks!! Nice to see you pop up on my thread! Hope you're well!

[Morgan Brown @MBrown_Ecology]

Are long distance migrants more fixed in their migratory behaviour than short-distance ones? Our new paper in @AnimalEcology examined individual repeatability of lesser black-backed #gulls and found #migration distance had little effect! https://t.co/e8KCxRNh9u
