What do pesticides to the honey bee brains? What is the truth about the safety of sub lethal doses? See our new work with MarcoPaoli in @EJNeuroscience on how neonicotinoids affect multiple areas of the bee brain. Necessary for debates on pesticides.

🚨New paper🚨
in collab with Chernetsov' Group.
The main idea: the destructive effect of the oscillating magnetic fields is pertinent to the avian magnetic compass, not to the avian orientation or motivation in general.

🌟Looking for a PhD & interested in spatial data science and movement ecology?🌟Come work with me, @Anim_Navigation & @OlliePadget to study olfactory bird navigation! @StAndrewsSGSD has six fully-funded positions and one of them could be yours. More info: st-andrews.ac.uk/geography-s…
@udemsar works in spatial data science and specialises in the development of methods for movement analysis. She is looking for an interdisciplinary #PhD student who will use remote sensing and spatial data science to study olfactory bird navigation.

New paper from @ElenaArmstrong0's PhD. Take home message: chronic stress experienced by individual laying hens varies more within housing system (good vs. poor physical state) than between housing systems (furnished cages vs. barn with free-range access): rdcu.be/cVD5C

We're excited to announce the launch of the Bird Migration Explorer, a first-of-its-kind digital platform that reveals migration data for birds across the western hemisphere—just in time for fall migration! Check out this free, interactive platform today: birdmigrationexplorer.org

89 #MotusWTS tagged #MonarchButterfly are making their way through s. #Ontario. This study led by @uofg will provide valuable info on their migratory behavior, and routes. Stay tuned for more updates @RyanNorrisSci @Newman_lab @gmitch_ecology @TylerFlockhart @AngelaDemarse
On the weekend, our President @Pat_Nad had the opportunity to release a tagged Monarch - part of a @uofg study tracking these butterflies' movements in southern Ontario! #MotusWTS @LotekWireless @environmentca

Here's a rather stunning visualization shared during today's @Y2Y_Initiative conference on #roadecology, via Tom Martin of Montana DOT — a young grizzly bear attempting, and nearly always failing, to cross I-90. Each X is a highway approach. About as permeable as the Berlin Wall.
