At the moment we have 4 positions open at the Peatland Science Group at the University of Greifswald (partner in the @greifswaldmoor.bsky.social). To provide some overview, here they are combined in a thread (sorry for mixing with German) 1/5

Whimbrel time is such a highlight of the birding year at Snitser Mar. The Kop Blosksleat is a great point to experience it. Sunset, nice views, lots of tea, and loads of birds.
Noting down all arriving individuals and flocks per 5 minute blocks and wt rough indication of arrival direction.
The arrival timing of Whimbrel at the roost, cumulatively across three observation points. X-axis = minutes to sunset. Y-axis nr of whimbrels.
Typical flock of Whimbrel flying to the roost at high speed.
Its so much fun documenting the big Whimbrel roost at Snitser Mar this year. Yday @hpsterk.bsky.social and Dick Pruiksma joined in a simultaneous count to cover three arrival directions. Together we saw at least 2700 Whimbrels, the vast majority arriving from NE-SE. waarneming.nl/observation/...

Welcome everyone, how easy was it to delete your X accounts? I’m still hoping it might come in handy some day 😅
