China’s wind farms can protect migratory birds, if well placed
Wind turbines are key to addressing climate change but should be located away from bird flyways.
So far they are placed on bird flyways

Today is #WorldOceanDay ! 🌊

Seabirds navigate vast, predictable marine flyways – superhighways in the sky – across the open ocean, linking nations, ecosystems and hemispheres.🌏

Six marine flyways are used by more than 150 migratory seabird species.🗺️📍

A major step forward for seabird conservation has been agreed following the formal recognition of Marine Flyways at the latest meeting of the Convention on Migratory Species in Brazil:
Marine Flyways formally recognised in global conservation breakthrough
Governments have formally recognised Marine Flyways for the first time, creating a new global framework for seabird conservation.

Like flyways for birds, we need to map swimways for fish
Knowing the largely unseen migration routes of freshwater fish is key to protecting species
Like flyways for birds, we need to map swimways for fish
Mapping fish migration routes and identifying threats is crucial to protecting freshwater species and their habitats, ecologists argue.

Happy PRIDE Month from the Black AF in STEM Collective

Join us in celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community 🏳️‍🌈.

In honor of this year’s Black Birders Week theme, Flyways & Freedom, we are mindful that flyways are pathways of connection. They are routes built across generations.

Absolutely gobsmacked to witness massive raptor migration near Panama City this morning. Probably the most birds I've ever seen in my life! The video doesn't do it justice, there were clouds of them moving through. Nature is amazing. #birds #flyways

H5N1 D1.1 isn't your grandpa's bird flu

Most human cases have been mild, but D1.1 hits harder—linked to:

Severely ill child (BC)
Death (Louisiana)
Hospitalization (CO, from WY)
Dairy herds & a worker (NV)

Wild birds spread D1.1 along their flyways
It's springtime again and birds are taking off 🧵

Researchers have identified six marine flyways that cross the world's oceans. Tammy Davies with @birdlifeglobal.bsky.social tells me this recognition is a big step towards protecting the world's seabirds (half of which are declining). Listen to the interview this week on the @mongabay.com newscast:
How marine flyways could help save the world’s declining seabird population
The routes taken by migratory birds, known as flyways, often cross vast expanses of ocean. Six of these marine flyways have now been formally recognized by the U.N.’s Convention on Migratory Species, ...

Flyways are like ecological highways, connecting continents through a series of critical habitats.🦩

Birds need a network of stopover sites to complete their long-distance migrations successfully. 💧

Birds know no borders. Neither do we. 🌍

Next month we host the Global Flyways Summit, uniting scientists, conservationists and policymakers with finance, business and government to protect the flyways connecting our planet.️🐦

Because birds cross borders, and so must our work.🙌

It is hard to comprehend our endless debates on coexistence with essentially harmless animals like wolves, beavers and cormorants, having seen very poor and unsubsidised farmers being asked to live alongside lions, elephants, hippos and hyenas."
