There’s such beauty in variety – and the eggs laid by our terns show it too. In our newest paper we try to find patterns in this variety and test how female identity and age, as well as laying order, affect the colour, spottiness, shape, and size of eggs: doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

Do you never ask if a female #bird always lays #eggs of a certain appearance? We tried do answer this question in the common terns. Follow the link for more:

Egg Characteristics of Female Common Terns Are Repeatable, and Vary With Maternal Age and Laying Order
We investigated sources of variation in eight egg characteristics capturing the colour, spottiness, shape, and size of 1589 eggs from 687 clutches produced by 330 female common terns (Sterna hirundo)...

These are 5 autumn migration routes travelled by the same common tern. He’s not the only one showing such flexibility, and it pays, because in our new paper, published by @royalsocietypublishing.org, we show that route flexibility is associated with minimized headwind exposure: tinyurl.com/4dawhwzj
