Is finally out, the first paper on the diet of Monteiro's and Madeiran storm-petrels from Azores.
Thank you so much to Renata Medeiros for this opportunity, and everyone involved: Joël, @Zoe_Deakin, @KatBoothJones, @RobThomas14, Bill and Jaime Ramos😁

Delighted to present an in person talk at our #OnEAwayDay22 sharing some breeding biology updates from my #PhD #IsletStormies @OnE_CardiffUni @CUStormies
Next talk is @HannahHereward on storm petrel population trends, complete with very fluffy chicks! No photos as she's about to publish these results.

1/6. #BOU2022 #SESH1. Excited to be presenting at the #BOU2022 @IBIS_journal #conference!
Today I will be presenting some breeding phenology data from artificial #nestboxes which have been monitored across the last two decades.

A bunch of fantastic #seabird #fieldwork roles just advertised with @RSPBScience. Timelines are tight so don’t delay! If only I could be in two places at once...

Excited to shared my first first-author paper, published in the journal ‘Seabird’! We categorised the floral communities and created a highly detailed habitat map of Praia Islet, a tiny seabird reserve in the Azores. Summary 🧵⬇️ (1/6)

Leach's storm petrels were surveyed using acoustic playback, with results indicating declines in breeding populations at St Kilda, Scotland and Elliðaey, Iceland. These results mean this species is now on the UK Red List.

Great to see all the posts with the latest @TheSeabirdGroup journal :). Several @CUStormies papers - @seafarersarah 1st, 1st-author paper detailing a fantastic #habitat #map :) & @Zoe_Deakin on acoustic monitoring. Looking forward to seeing my hard copy once home! #isletstormies

Huge congrats to volunteer editor @Viola_RS on getting the latest @TheSeabirdGroup journal out! It’s a storm petrel bonanza and contains my new paper but the highlight for me has got to be this whole page of @RSPBRamsey wonder dog, Dewi!

The post I've been waiting for has arrived to Edinburgh! There's my photograph on the cover, but more excitingly, my first first-author publication is in here! 🥳
Huge kudos to @Viola_RS for all her hard work in editing this issue of @TheSeabirdGroup journal 🐧

1/6 #BOUsci21 #Sesh5 | Leach’s Storm Petrel is a small, highly pelagic seabird. There have been huge declines at the biggest colonies in the western Atlantic (e.g. tinyurl.com/439v6n2p) but what about the eastern Atlantic? With the help of all these people, I aimed to find out

Full details of the St Kilda Leach's storm petrel census will be published in the forthcoming @TheSeabirdGroup journal but here's a short thread from @IBIS_journal's #BOUsci21 conference last week 👇

Obviously not the result we hoped for when we set out to count St Kilda's Leach's storm petrels for the @JNCC_UKseabirds #SeabirdsCount census, but I'm glad our data could feed into #BoCC5 & help highlight the plight of these amazing #seabirds. Thanks to all who made it happen.
The majority of the UK’s breeding Leach’s Storm-petrels breed on the St Kilda archipelago where they have declined by 68% between 2000 & 2019 resulting in them being added to the #BOCC5 Red list and being assessed as Critically Endangered in Great Britain #seabirds #ornithology

So excited for the #BOU2022 Avian Reproduction conference next year - looking forward to meet in person and to be presenting some #Azores #isletstormie breeding biology comparisons from across two decades @CUStormies

This made my week: Storm Petrels are called "sea helicopters" in some places 💙 @CUStormies @TheSeabirdGroup @RobThomas14
