Far-flung journeys begin with the Arctic Tern. Chicks hatch on the ground, growing quickly on fish.

After just a few weeks, fledglings will take to the sky and follow their parents on a pole-to-pole migration.

Deep #ornithology thoughts for your Tuesday: do bowerbirds' creations count as "art"?
Can animals make art?
Without being able to get into the heads of animals, it’s hard to say for sure. But instances of pig painters, whale crooners and bird sculptors certainly make it seem plausible.

Did you know, the record number of birds found in one nest box was 61 Wrens? 👀

They are very small, but that's still a lot of Wrens!

Do you have a nest box? Who would be your dream birdy tenants?

#ThoughtfulThursday
A plump and round Wren perches on a weathered branch, its tiny claws gripping the rough surface. Its warm brown plumage is flecked with subtle streaks and speckles, blending perfectly with the muted background. A pale eyebrow stripe adds contrast to its delicate face, while its short, upturned tail is held at a jaunty angle.

Published online early today! Find out how our research team has been using collective governance and citation politics to more effectively share power and recognize Latin American contributions to ornithology. doi.org/10.1093/orni... PM me if you want a copy without the paywall.
A graphical abstract that reads: How can research teams share power and promote justice in publications? Colonialism excludes people and ideas. 1. We recognized interlocking systems of oppression: Academic capitalism, White supremacy, Ableism, Imperialism, Cis-heteropatriarchy. 2. We intervened. Tools we used in organizing a special feature and a review article: Citation politics, Collaboration ethics, collective governance & authorship decisions, Reveal 'hidden curriculum'. 3. Participants reflections: "We strengthened ties across marginalized groups." "We highlighted Indigenous and Afro-descendant knowledge." "We valued healing and rest."
