Monitoring active osprey nests with drones is more time efficient and less disturbing than conventional methods

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Drones are used to monitor bird nesting sites at less accessible locations, such as on cliffs, human infrastructure, or within the tree canopy. While there are a growing number of studies documenting avian behavioral responses to various drones, there is a continued need to monitor taxa‐specific responses to different drone models. We explored both the

Evaluation of drones as a tool for multi‐species nest surveys on linear rights‐of‐way

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
This paper examines the use of drones with infrared cameras as a tool in the detection of bird nests on linear rights‐of‐way, in comparison to standard ground‐based nest surveys. Abstract The varying application of drone use in wildlife research has expanded in recent years. With the ability to utilize a variety of different sensors (e.g., infrared [IR]

Trade‐offs across life history stages and social association types shape winter communal roosting in a long‐lived raptor

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates how life history trade‐offs and pair bonds influence winter roosting in red kites. Analysing long‐term GPS data from 216 individuals, we reveal marked behavioural plasticity in communal roosting: young, non‐breeding males are most likely to join communal roosts, whereas breeding pairs predominantly roost together near their ...

Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...

Guesting: rethinking the relationship between hospitality and homemaking within temporary refugee accommodation Le concept de guesting: repenser la relation entre hospitalité et création d'un « chez‐soi » dans l'hébergement temporaire des personnes réfugiées

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This paper introduces the emic concept of guesting, coined by women living in refugee accommodation to distinguish their form of hospitality from other more hierarchical forms of hosting. Central to guesting is the unspoken rule that once you have played the host, next time you must be the guest.
