We're incredibly concerned about the welfare of two satellite-tagged golden eagles, Tarras and Wren, that have recently disappeared in Dumfries and Galloway.

Anyone with information should contact Police Scotland.

The bird was trying to get to shore, but was pushed away by the people.

Is this how people healthily love and care for birds/wildlife? 💔

🧵 I had a great time at #MigFest25 as always, it’s 👍🏼 to see so many people who also ❤️ birds/migration.

But really upsetting that people have to get ridiculously close to get a shot/view of a migrating bird, likely exhausted. Please respect wildlife.

Great to see Lancaster bird expert Dr Stuart Sharp explaining the importance of ringing and tagging birds in this piece published by the BBC today! 🐦

'Tagging these tiny birds takes years of training' - BBC News

Conservationists at a Lancashire nature reserve says learning how to ring birds takes years to master.

This does not address the key issue, the large parts of the CGNP are burnt for grouse shooting. This dries them out and makes them more flammable. We need rewetting and a national scheme where all fires are banned during times high fire risk. @cairngormsnews.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

(1/) The charismatic Dipper is at home in our faster flowing waterways, especially in the north and west of the UK. Find out more about how its population is faring along waterways in this thread! @btobirds.bsky.social @jncc.bsky.social @rspbscience.bsky.social #Ornithology

Last year, the EU challenged the UK’s decision to close sandeel fishing in English and Scottish waters of the North Sea.

Sandeels are small, but they’re a key food source for #Puffins, Kittiwakes, and many other seabirds.

No waay! They are so beautiful!

I have lived in rural/semirural Lancashire for the last 5 years and have had often linnets flying over my garden, but never feeding in my garden. A pair feeding on dandelion seeds ❤️

First day of the season checking nest boxes, what a beautiful day. Most nests were at a stage N1 - NL, tits and a nuthatch. Waiting impatiently for the arrival of pied flycatchers and redstarts!

1/6 Monitoring some #seabird species using observer-based methods is difficult, this can lead to infrequent data collection, or none at all

Little data on populations= limited ability to understand how threats may impact these species

🧵1/7 What do massive insect crashes mean for insectivorous birds? And can aquatic habitats help?

Today at #BOU2025 I'm exploring how aquatic habitats might help to buffer declining insectivore populations, using the Spotted Flycatcher as an example.

Had a wonderful time at #BOU2025, so much cool research and awesome catching up with old and making new pals! Very nice to have received an award for highly commended ECR talk as well, a lovely confidence boost 🥰 #ornithology
