Grateful to work on Middleton I. with the Institute for Seabird Research and Conservation, and particularly proud of two student co-authors, Stephanie Walsh ('24) and Sierra Pete (MS '24). #seabirds #seabird #kittiwakes #BLKI #middletonisland

Close-up photo of a ring-billed gull looking at the camera with one visible yellow eye. The gull’s cute fluffy body fills most of the frame, with mostly white feathers with small patches of gray on their head and neck. The background is very out-of-focus warm gray beach.
sweet ring-billed gull came over to hang out while I took photos of the ocean🩶

Infographic summarising the 2025 Atlantic Puffin breeding season on the Isle of May. It shows two key metrics: breeding success of 0.75 chicks per pair (above average) and adult survival of 82%, which is on the long-term average. The graphic includes simple icons and highlights that adult survival is an important indicator for long-lived seabirds. Source: UKCEH.
Last but not least in our 2025 Isle of May breeding summary:
Puffins nest in burrows, raising a single chick each summer before spending winter at sea. They take ~3 years to mature & can live for >30 years.
📊Breeding success: 0.75, above average
📉Adult survival: 82%, average

Reported major wreck of #seabirds along Atlantic coasts with large numbers washed in dead, mainly from starvation in SW England,Channel Islands,France,Spain,Portugal. Mostly due to prolonged severe winter storms. over 38,000 seabirds found dead since Feb.
Snack time.

First winter Ring-billed gull still present in #Malaga. A persistent fighter against the Lesser Black-Backed gulls, until she got her food! And a nice surprise at #Guadalhorce river mouth, an Oystercatcher! #gulls #gull #teamgull #Idbirds #seabirds #Neartctic #Mediterranean
The diet of one of the most abundant Arctic #seabirds, the black-legged #kittiwake, has been used as an #EcosystemIndicator in Europe, yet little is known about diet in #ArcticCanada.
We examined the diet of kittiwakes near #Qikiqtarjuaq and #Mittimatalik, #Nunavut, using multiple methods.
As a #seabird #biologist, I know all to well how difficult it can be to deploy tracking devices that last long enough on the #bird! This new study uses 3D-printed clamp systems to deploy tracking devices on #seabirds.

A solitary Atlantic Puffin flying swiftly over deep blue, rippled ocean water.
Airborne? Yes. Smooth sailing? Not quite yet. This little Atlantic Puffin flying fast and low over the choppy water is exactly what the middle of the week feels like. Just need to navigate a few more rough patches and keep flying straight toward the weekend! 🌊

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WingsOpenNotFlying, birds with wings open on the Floor/Water but not flying set by @robcrank68.bsky.social - Chosen an Atlantic Puffin today~ photo taken on Skomer Island - Pembrokeshire - West Wales 😍 🪶🦉 #birdingWales #ukbirding #birdphotography #ECK #seabirds
Watching the gulls at Padstow watching themselves....lots of birds on the estuary so lots of inspiration

Another abundant bird in the south Atlantic.. Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris). This one is a juvenile. #BirdingArgentina #albatrosses #mollymawks #seabirds
Here's another "cape" bird. The Rufous-collared Sparrow was "capensis" and this one is Daption "capense" .. the Pintado Petrel. The genus name is an anagram of the common name. By far the commonest petrel we saw in the south Atlantic. #BirdingArgentina #petrels #seabirds
Graphic displays an image with the title 'A Look at Auks, pt.1' which details a couple of facts relevant to both Puffins and Razorbills.

Infographic summarising the 2025 Common Guillemot breeding season on the Isle of May. It shows two key metrics: breeding success of 0.72 chicks per pair (average) and adult survival of 83%, which is below the long-term average. The graphic includes simple icons and highlights that adult survival is an important indicator for long-lived seabirds. Source: UKCEH.
How was the 2025 season for Guillemots on the Isle of May?
📊 Breeding success: 0.72, average
📉 Adult survival: 83%, below average
Adult survival is crucial for long-lived seabirds, so even small changes matter. Long-term monitoring helps us track how they respond to a changing world.

Tracking #seabirds has become increasingly important to collect data about their space use - but how to attach the #loggers? Colleagues from @ninanatureresearch.bsky.social have developed a clamp system, which helps to keep loggers in place for several weeks to months. seapop.no/en/2026/03/n...
