I'll talk about this more next week but can't resist finishing my Friday with this update
Our paper is online now in early view! Sara Gomez, Luca Börger & I led a fantastic team of researchers in this review:
Understanding and predicting animal movements and distributions in the Anthropocene

Uncovering Alpine swift foraging behaviour using GPS tracking & DNA metabarcoding! For the first time we describe Alpine swift foraging movements and what factors impact foraging trips, short-term range area size, & the prey diversity fed to nestlings #BOU2025 #ornithology 1/7

A photograph of an upland landscape in northern England with text over it. Title reads: “Expert input needed for multi-taxa biodiversity research project across northern England’s uplands”. Subtitle reads: “Species, habitat or regional specialists please contact franky.rogers@uea.ac.uk”. Logos for the University of East Anglia, RSPB and ARIES DTP in the top right corner.
Do you have knowledge or expertise in taxonomic groups found in the UK’s uplands? I’m looking for naturalists to contribute to autecological analysis as part of a #biodiversity audit assessing impacts of land-use change across eight of northern England’s protected landscapes 1/4
