#FalklandsShags
A great first full day at #CoimbraSeabirds. What a fab bunch of clear & interesting talks, & beautiful posters lining the walls. Grateful to everyone who came to check out my poster & chat about #FalklandsShags 💙

Excited to be in not-so-sunny Portugal for #CoimbraSeabirds 🥳
Looking forward to seeing everyone & presenting a poster with first #biologging analyses of my PhD - how repeatable are #FalklandsShags foraging behaviours? Are more birds specialising in larger colonies to avoid competition?

I study the diet & foraging behaviour of #FalklandsShags, specifically looking at what might drive some birds to be specialists in these traits. A wonderful & understudied species!

Really great first day & a half at #BOU2025. Lots of interesting & superbly presented science so far - looking forward to hearing more tomorrow & sharing some of my own work on #FalklandsShags.

What a great few days at #BOU2025. Loads of interesting & inclusive science, & a really supportive & friendly bunch of people. A great place to give the first talk of my PhD on #FalklandsShags & delighted to have been highly commended for my Bluesky thread 👇🏼

2/7 By studying breeding #FalklandsShags at several colonies we asked: Are specialist birds consistently specialist across a range of traits such as diet & foraging behaviour, or does it simply depend on the trait being studied?
