@khalilmona1 My family is definitely totally into it.

Here's a new technical report I have out with colleagues looking at the affects of various curtailment strategies on reducing bat fatalities at wind energy facilities while maximizing wind energy production.

This dissertation on how bats respond to aridity by Irene Conenna at University of Helsinki is very well done and makes a very nice addition to the literature in this area.

With severe fire in the West again this year, this paper is worth thinking about in terms of bat conservation. #bats #wildfire

I've got to say I really like the new Song Meter app for connecting to the Wildlife Acoustic detectors. Kudo's Wildlife Acoustics! #bats

[Mark Hayes @HayesAMark]

This new paper by Rick Adams is fascinating, suggesting that prairie dog colonies influence bat behavior and activity. #bats

Cool new paper on the mammals of the Gila region of New Mexico. Page 220 has some great trail camera shots of interesting animals, including a gray fox travelling with a spotted skunk! And also the most ripped mountain lion I've ever seen.

Kudos to the Normandeau team for installing their Acoustic Thermographic Offshore Monitoring (ATOM) system at the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind pilot project. It will be very interesting to see what they find. Story link below.

Antioch Dunes evening-primrose (Oenothera deltoides ssp. howellii) at Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge, with Mount Diablo in the background. This is an endangered plant that is doing very well in response to dune reconstruction at the Refuge. #endangeredspecies

This is a nice resource on diversity in the conservation movement

For the bat folks, this is a nice story featuring Toni Piaggio on the question of whether vampire bats might expand into the southern U.S. under the influence of a changing climate.

For the bat-wind folks, check out the new Wieringa et al. paper on modelling migratory pathways of tree bats in North America. Definitely worth thinking about. #bats #windenergy

This is a very creative new paper on mitigating the impacts of wind energy development on migratory species (birds and bats). Nice visualizations, too. #bats #windenergy

This looks like good news for some bat species in Europe. Roost selection studies would also be fun, especially exploring castles and old churches as maternity sites! #bats

For those interested in endangered plants, this report on Antioch Dunes evening-primrose is hot off the presses by our USGS colleagues.

Nice new study on the population genetics of bat white-nose syndrome in North America , suggesting gene flow and recombination among regions.
