intra-tropical migrations surely much more common than we currently know - very nice paper showing climate niche tracking (to wet season) across the equator!
📢 New paper alert! Dive into the fascinating migration of the Woodland Kingfisher within Africa! 🌍✨ 📄 Big congratulations to Yann Rime and @taymida on this outstanding work! 👏!

Wish someone would do this with tropical biology..
Found a Facebook group where Boomers post their hiking photos from the 1970s and its like another planet. Pure Americana, but feels like a lost civilization.

The queen still reigning hard 👑
SHE DID IT AGAIN! Wisdom, the world’s oldest known wild bird, is back with a new partner and just laid yet another egg. At an approximate age of 74, the queen of seabirds returned to Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge last week and began interacting with a male.

Grass snowshoes - one of the avian kingdoms coolest traits.. eyeopening that the huge hallux of many Coucals is so often not reflected in illustrations!
Black Coucal, Centropus grillii, is a scarce summer migrant, breeding locally in the up-river regions of The Gambia. 2 were caught ringed and sampled near Sapu, the first ever ringed by KBO. The long hind claw enables this species to move through its preferred grassland habitat.

You might like Nightingales singing in their breeding range , but wait until you see them after their post-breeding moult in non-breeding range. AI delivering ornithological insights as ever 😱
