The final open-access version of our paper is out! Here we found diverse diets among honey bee hives even when in close proximity. Non-almond pollen was a complementary resource throughout the season! https://t.co/pPjAeIIA1l

Did you know that also small birds use torpor to save energy in winter? if not (also if you did!) check out our new paper. Again feeling extremely lucky to have awesome collaborators!

Thanks to all who helped me with #pollinator#plantingguides, I now got great coverage for US, UK and Australia😀. If somebody have further suggestions from Asia, Africa, South America, and Europe (except UK and Ireland) I would highly appreciate it. Litt could be in any language
Pollinator researchers - can you help me to find examples of planting guides for pollinators? Could be books, homepages etc., country wide or regional. It would be lovely with examples from several countries and continents. Thanks🙂
Today Stockholm University published a short popular science movie (in Swedish) about our project on the effects of extreme drought on biodiversity. @Irena_Adia https://t.co/rqQZN97E0o

@TheBeeEcologist Great thanks @TheBeeEcologist , I will check it out. For Australia I have been using the Bee Friendly book by Mark Leech, but it would be great to find some additional resources!
Surprising results- cort in old feathers changes in response to plasma hormonal manipulation:
Experimental corticosterone manipulation increases mature feather corticosterone content: implications for inferring avian stress history from feather analyses https://t.co/Lwl79N8Sqe
I am looking for a postdoctoral researcher (up to 3 years) interested in experimental community ecology and trophic interaction modifications. Come work with me at @UZH_en, funded by @snsf_ch. More info about how to apply here: https://t.co/JbArJjrBs5

Dipterans have many important functions in agroecosystems; however, they are too often overlooked. We found predatory #dipterans, potentially important for pest control, to be very common in Swedish apple orchards. Read more in our latest publication https://t.co/b2pHNpprFx
Nice paper by @emeijaard and colleagues on the massive biodiversity impact of Coconut oil compared to others (including palm oil).
I hadn't realised that coconut plantations cover 12.6 million hectares! Nearly as much as palm oil (18.9).

I’m happy to announce that my paper that covers my concern over pollinators in SW Ethiopia, is now published in #TheScientificNaturalist :). I hope this paper will spur further research on #pollinators and their services in under-studied areas of Africa. https://t.co/TFJSPhdM8L
#Beetwitter: How do you separate #pollen grains from bee #corbicula loads? I have samples in ethanol I need to suspend in homogeneous solution but pollen stays clumped even after crush/vortex/mix in H2O (in different combos). Most papers don’t clarify methods.
@ERS_UNE is offering scholarships for Australian honours projects up to 15k for the year! Please contact us if you want to work on pollination or something related Honours DAP application website https://t.co/g415D3HZDC
