Seabirds, such as kittiwakes, gannets, and puffins, are key indicators of marine health. Paulo Bessa has spent the past week as part of a NatureScot team surveying seabird populations on the Shiant Isles. In today’s blog he explains why. #WorldOceansDay https://t.co/jcWB1nGFfA
Had an absolutely fantastic time visiting the #Shiants with @NatureScot
Got to see many beautiful seabirds, experience these amazing islands, and worked with some fantastic people. And it's wonderful being able to contribute to vital seabird survey data.
Feeling so lucky!

Every once in a while, the internet stumbles on this old 7-second video of me demonstrating the cranial kinetic apparatus of a hyacinth macaw 🦜 & start sharing it anew. That's happening again, so I'll post a link to a longer, more explanatory video.

Transgender Awareness Week runs from 13-19 November each year & leads up to Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) on November 20, which commemorates victims of transphobic violence.
At this time it is all the more important to support the Trans & Non-binary community.

Well, this was a fun distraction from working late on my thesis
Luckily it just dribbled a bit on my leg, but wow this could have been bad 😅.
A good reminder to myself to check my other hot water bottles and to be better about following the instructions I guess
