'Tis the season for laconic evening Blackbird song drifting over the village gardens. One of the finest pleasures. Sound up.

The song of a Blackbird, with a background Robin will forever be the perfect duo. Moments worth appreciating.

I highly recommend this position! Last year i got to work with this amazing team and birds, really fun and great science!

Ordinary Extraordinary Junco Juncos are common backyard birds, but years of research has revealed their diversity as well as new discoveries related to migration, hormones, evolution, and ecology. Each chapter in the documentary...

Highly recommend this 8 part series, for anybody who doesn't already know it. Very inspiring work!

Climate, ecological dynamics, and the seasonal distribution of birds in mountains Ecological dynamics related to energy use and competition drives the seasonal distribution of birds in mountains across the world.

Why is there such variation in the birds encountered as you go up or down a mountain? New paper in #ScienceAdvances examines how climate and ecological interactions drive bird distributions in mountains throughout the year:

Finally got to witness a big gathering of Bramblings! Here around 15000! Before the video i saw them as a flow of 50 per second, for 5 minutes.
Turn on sound!

Horned lark from Romania

Awesome, might message you in the future if we eventually do decide to start our own project. Good luck with the Accentors!

Are this loggers accurate enough to detect altitudinal migartion over short distances? I'm interested in doing something similar with resident breeding Mountain horned lark in Romania, since we don't really know where most of the population overwinters.
