#WSTC7 #ForSesh3 1/4 During the #RAZO breeding season, capelin, an important prey🐟for marine predators, migrates into coastal #NL to spawn, ⬆️food abundance. Due to changing ocean conditions the timing and amount of this food resource has become highly variable @DavorenLab

@DavorenLab @E_Runnells @foggybinoculars @LegardMatthew Can't wait to see them on some RAZO legs!!!! 😍

Such awesome work looking into location and diet data with auks!!! My 3 favorite things !!! ❤️ #TeamAuk So excited to learn more from @E_Runnells !!

[Lauren Lescure @Scure167]

Always love hearing about razorbills ❤️❤️❤️ #TeamAuk! Their bite is as bad as their bark and I wouldn't have it any other way! #WSTC8

(1/4) #WSTC8 #BehaSesh2 Personality is common in animals and can influence behaviour, with boldness being the most studied trait. Growing research on seabird personality. We studied adult razorbills to identify personality and its effects on behaviour including migration.

Really cool presentation from the @DavorenLab looking at gull predation on ADULT puffins and kleptoparasitism!!

[Lauren Lescure @Scure167]

@KennerleyWill Awesome!! Excited to see how the following years shape up!!

[Lauren Lescure @Scure167]

@KennerleyWill #WSTC8 @KennerleyWill awesome study and results! Are there plans to do a multi-year study to see how/if these relationships change? Any thoughts on how poor prey years could impact similarities between adult/chick? Has energy density of these prey been assessed in the GOM yet?

[Davoren Lab @DavorenLab]

The Davoren Lab is very excited to share some results during #WSTC8 Check us out!

Okay, off to Demography & Surveys II & Diet I where I'll be talking at 1515 UTC about how optimal foraging is different at low than at high latitudes, and why pelicans are like whales! Others in this session: @Scure167, @jjwaggitt, @MJPolito, @sham_jammm. #WSC3
