1/7 Variation between individuals is important as it determines how adaptable to change a population might be. Even generalist spp are often comprised of specialist individuals, but specialisation is often only studied across single traits which is limiting.

Good to be back at the annual in-person @bou.org.uk conference- 2025 theme "Frontiers in Ornithology"- timely for me having started using movement tech for my pied fly study. Great to kick off with @judyshamounb.bsky.social giving an overview of how movement ecology tech has advanced over 40 years.

Outstanding start to #BOU2025 with a fascinating Alfred Newton lecture from @judyshamounb.bsky.social, on the amazing knowledge of bird movement and behaviour we have gained from tracking technologies.

🧵1/7 What do massive insect crashes mean for insectivorous birds? And can aquatic habitats help?
Today at #BOU2025 I'm exploring how aquatic habitats might help to buffer declining insectivore populations, using the Spotted Flycatcher as an example.

Global warming is leading to more frequent periods of extremely high temperatures. Understanding individual behavioural responses across temperature gradients can help identify and design measures that enable species to cope with extremes temperatures, aiding their conservation.
