Super excited to share the first paper from my PhD! 🎉
We found that rivers don’t just matter for wetland birds - they also help support terrestrial insectivores, thanks to the flow of energy and nutrients from aquatic insects. 🌊🦟

Cross-system transfer of fatty acids from aquatic insects supports terrestrial insectivore condition and reproductive success - Oecologia
Cross-system fluxes of aquatic insects rich in omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 LC-PUFAs), specifically eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), may subsidise ins...

JOB ALERT: We have an exciting Senior Research Assistant post available for a project tracking predators and prey simultaneously starting early 2026. We need someone with experience tagging adult raptors or wader chicks. This you? app.vacancy-filler.co.uk/salescrm/Car...

First paper from our tawny owl project finally out! Great European-wide collaboration, thanks to all participants who have kindly contributed their data. We found that noise negatively affects occupancy and breeding success, while the effects of light pollution depended on the distance to roads.

Our new paper in @ecol-evol.bsky.social shows that noise reduces owl prey detectability and it generates adverse effects already at an early life stage, with potential carry-over effects on adulthood. Paper: doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

Experimental Exposure to Noise Affects Hunting Behavior Already From a Young Age in a Nocturnal Acoustic Predator
This study experimentally investigates the effect of traffic noise on the hunting behavior of young and subadult Tawny Owls (Strix aluco). We show that noise lowers the rate of prey detection and inc....
