Proud to publish a Forum piece in @WaderStudy about protecting shorebirds (e.g., Spotshanks) in the Inner Gulf of Thailand thanks to @TheWCS, @BCSThailand, and @BirdLife_Asia. One small step in the fight to safeguard our feathered friends! waderstudygroup.org/article/…

“Each of the threats (…) requires specific place-based management interventions if long-term conservation of Spotted Greenshank, and other shorebirds, is to be accomplished at these sites.” – @TringaShank et al. waderstudygroup.org/article/… #waders #shorebirds #ornithology

It is very exciting for @GlobalFlyway to be enabled to share, real time, forthcoming tracks of 3 more Nordmann's Greenshanks tagged in Thailand by @TringaShank! These three (zoom in at globalflywaynetwork.org/flyw…) add to story of SIU CHING, tagged in HongKong last year, now in India.

Curious as to where and how Nordmann's Greenshanks move within Thailand and beyond!? Now you can follow their amazing journeys via @GlobalFlyway. Simply follow the link (globalflywaynetwork.org/flyw…) and filter birds by project or species! Just in time for northward migration 🥳

#Endangered Nordmann's Greenshanks are rather plastic in the location of their nest site (as long as its directly associated with a larch tree...) See our new paper! 🥳🐣 @JonathanSlaght @PowellBirds #EAAF #Nesting #Shorebirds #Russia cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Migratory shorebirds face many challenges, not least are stray dogs. Even if the pups cant catch them, the energy expended flying away is costly & makes birds vulnerable to avian predators. 7 Nordmann's Greenshanks @ BangKaeo, Phetchaburi, #Thailand #Endangered #EAAF #Shorebirds

Sometimes, the path to studying Nordmann's Greenshanks in the Russian Far East can get a bit messy... Summer 2021 - road between Nikolayevsk-on-Amur and Schaste Bay #Endangered #EAAF #Shorebirds #Russia

So fun to see how @wwfhk-tagged Nordmann's Greenshank "Siu Ching" migrated from a stopover area in coastal China to a likely wintering area on Nga Man Thaung Island, Myanmar! Follow along! @GlobalFlyway (globalflywaynetwork.org/flyw…) #Endangered #EAAF #Shorebirds #Migration

This summer I was fortunate to meet the talented David Personius and his mesmerizing wooden shorebird decoys. I am now the proud owner of a handsome and regal Nordmann's Greenshank! Check out his amazing work at etsy.com/shop/DavidPersonius…

Fantastic short film by our Russian partners, showcasing the plight of walrus in this period of rapid climate change. Kudos to the hard work of people like Maxim Chakilev. @USFWSAlaska @MarineMammalCom @CAFFSecretariat newyorker.com/culture/the-ne… via @NewYorker

During nesting, Nordmann's Greenshank primarily consume small fish - Ninespine Sticklebacks. After catching, birds need to turn the fish so the spines don't interfere with swallowing. This is not especially graceful...Schaste Bay, 6 June 2019 #Russia #Endangered #EAAF #Shorebirds

Nordmann's Greenshank nest in trees and on the ground! In both cases they depend on Larch trees for protection from adverse weather and predators. Pictured is an incubating adult, the host sapling (can you spot the bird??), and chicks! Schaste Bay, Russian Far East, June 2021.

Reminiscing about the time I found a Nordmann's Greenshank #nest in Schaste Bay, RFE in July of 2021. Such beautiful habitat! So much left to learn about these incredible birds! #Endangered #EAAF #shorebirds

We're excited to announce the launch of the Bird Migration Explorer, a first-of-its-kind digital platform that reveals migration data for birds across the western hemisphere—just in time for fall migration! Check out this free, interactive platform today: birdmigrationexplorer.org

Fantastic to see this coverage, both in text and in photos, of our work with bar-tailed #godwits and #wilsterflappers in the #WaddenSea, and how we try to develop #BirdEyes as a new centre of discovery and outreach @univgroningen in Leeuwarden. @NIOZnieuws @IBED_UvA #flyway
Voor de rosse grutto zijn de Wadden een belangrijk ‘tankstation’ op hun reis naar hun broedgebied in Noord-Siberië. Maar beschikt het nog wel over voldoende brandstof? Verder: Zinkflora, unieke vegetatie in de Lage Landen. Vanaf vandaag te koop via natgeoshop.nl/national-geogr…
