Happy to share our latest publication out now in @funecology.bsky.social. 🥳
Here, we studied the effects of mate desertion on offspring survival, development and physiology in one of the most interesting bird species, the Rock sparrow!
Check out the paper for more info👇

Just back from the #ECSconference2025 in the beautiful Azores — my first scientific conference! I presented a poster on striped dolphins distribution in the Aeolian Archipelago. So inspiring to meet researchers passionate about marine mammals, like me!🐬
