Gannets go through quite the plumage change, being primarily black as juveniles and white as adults!

Have a scroll through this thread to see how their plumage changes on the way to adulthood! #seabirds #birds @btobirds.bsky.social @jncc.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social

Victoria’s riflebirds are masters of time, accelerating their dance tempo by reducing the durations between movements by just 50 milliseconds, before leveling off at 3 alternations per second and flashing their yellow mouth.

New paper on precise tool use learning in carrion crows @currentbiology.bsky.social. We show that—like New Caledonian crows—expert carrion crows pay close attention to the working end of their tool, suggesting tool integration into their peripersonal space. 🧵 & vids! 👇

Excited to share that I presented at the Behaviour 2025 Conference in Kolkata 🎓🕊️. My talk focused on nest site fidelity in painted storks, i.e. their tendency to return to and reuse nesting sites across seasons.
