Winter means.. communal roosts! 🦅🐦🦜

But why do birds form such roosts? In red kites, young single males are the most frequent visitors. Once paired, birds roost more solitarily, often together as a pair.

A new (and improved) version of the fantastic BES’s reproducible code guide is now live.

Seriously amazing resource for those wanting to produce code that enables reproducible research.

Featuring some SORTEE members and also code review!!

@sortee.bsky.social
Excited to launch the new improved Reproducible Code guide from @britishecologicalsociety.org @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social FREE online here! www.britishecologicalsociety.org//wp-content/... Amazing work by some very talented ECRs. We hope it’s useful!

You are very welcome to join me during my talk to think about #urbanisation, #migration and #evolution.

PS - If the science isn't of your interest, I promise cute pictures of owls...

PPS - If you can't attend the talk but are interested in the project, follow us on Insta @migralight
