Rest in peace, Jane Goodall! You made the world a better place. Let's try to follow Jane's footsteps and inspiration and try to make a difference. The right kind of difference!

Counting kittiwakes in Rørvik with @bksandercock.bsky.social. #Fieldwork for @seapop.bsky.social has started. #seabird #research @ninanatureresearch.bsky.social

#birdwatching on #OctoberBigDay - 51 species and > 2000 individuals. Not a bad result for October in central #Norway. A lot of migrants have left already - no surprise, as we were met by crispy cold temperatures, but blue sky. ebird.org/tripreport/2...

New article on #plastics in #faeces samples of shag chicks. 25 out of 36 samples contained microplastics > 100 µm; we found 17 particles per g dry mass and clear evidence for parental transfer of plastics.

The fieldseason on Sklinna was a success also this year. Lots of data collected, lots of loggers deployed. Want to know more? - read my blog post:

GPS #biotracking of #shags on Sklinna done for this season. We got 59 of 60 trackers back. GPS & dive loggers help us identify important foraging areas, critical for marine spatial planning. #seabirds #mpa @seapop.bsky.social

#European 🇪🇺 #elections today. I hope many of my friends in Europe are going voting today/ have voted already for a strong, peaceful and united Europe, and against nationalist interests that are splitting what has taken so long to build. My #vote went in by letter a few weeks ago

Another encounter with #fishing nets that are killing #seabirds. We couldn't save the shag anymore, but the guillemot got to live. #fieldwork at Sklinna #Norway for @seapop.bsky.social

Kittiwake count in Rørvik. #Seabirds #fieldwork for NINA & @seapop.bsky.social. Looks like the #avianinfluenza outbreak last year had no major impact on this population #HPAI #H5N1
