As hard as it is to do something other than watch streams of migrating soaring #Birds over our heads we also have been watching some of the other #ornithological magic here in The #Straits

Following much needed rain both Wilson’s and European Storm #Petrels amassing in The Straits giving some breathtaking encounters around our private boat excursion 😊

Here a European Storm Petrel cruises past!

#Bird Tooters, here is one for the #seabirds enthusiasts, from The Bird Emergency podcast archive!
You may know that #bycatch is a killer of countless thousands of #albatross #petrels and other seabirds in the fisheries of the world, but one clever device, the #Hookpod, is saving more and more of these #birds every day, making fisheries safer for #birds I spoke with Dr. Ben Sullivan, one of the originators of the Hookpod, about the idea and development of Hookpod.

New data on Cahow non-breeding movements will be key for us to evaluate their current non-breeding distribution over the North Atlantic as well as potential changes occurred over a decade. #seabirds #petrels #conservation https://twitter.com/BermudaCahowCam/status/1596925931729612802
