Monitoring Short-Eared Owls on the Galapagos. Here footage from a #Reconyx #trailcamera which turned out to be a reliable tool in the field in recording prey provisioning rates and prey species. Being part of the @BirdLabFlinders & @KLF_UniVienna team #birdwatching #ornithology

EO Wilson passed away age 92 after a lifetime of being an incredible inspiration for any biologist, leaving behind a legacy - not just in books and publications that changed how we view evolution and island biology. RIP
