I'm preparing for my talk at #BES2025 and want to know what people think the main goal of applied ecological and conservation research is. If everything goes to plan, I’ll be using the poll results in the talk itself, so the more responses the better! @britishecologicalsociety.org

Hi Steve, have been reading your posts with interest, some great numbers you’ve been seeing! I’m coming down to Pendeen for a few days with my son next week to bird. The winds look good at the moment 🤞

Do you do moth trapping in the UK? We'd love your help! 💡
At @ukceh.bsky.social we're training & testing AI to detect multiple moths in a single image.
Send us top-down photos of multiple moths on egg trays to support this work.

So are all the separate authorities defunct now? Just one combined committee from now on?
