The demography of an Osprey population under natural recolonisation and translocation processes

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
In a context of global biodiversity loss, studying the processes underlying the recolonisation—whether natural or assisted—of expanding species provides essential insights for the development of effective conservation strategies. Since the 1980s, the Osprey Pandion haliaetus has naturally recolonized mainland central and eastern France, increasing from

Recovery of great blue herons (Ardea herodias) within the Chesapeake Bay

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 8, November 2026.
We surveyed great blue herons throughout the tidal reach of the Chesapeake Bay in 2013 and mapped 423 colonies supporting 15,094 pairs. The population has increased more than four‐fold since the mid‐1970s. Colony size has declined. Invasion of colonies by bald eagles may be driving a change in spatial structure.

Individual and population effects of entanglement mortality on ospreys from plastic baling twine in nests

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
The global production of plastics continues to increase, and most of our knowledge about the negative effects of plastics pollution comes from marine environments.

Underestimation of avian diversity in the Tumbesian hotspot: Sampling gaps and conservation challenges

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study provides the first comprehensive reassessment of avian diversity in the Tumbesian region in over 30 years, documenting 931 species and identifying significant sampling gaps driven by geographic accessibility. We reveal a critical misalignment between biodiversity value and current protection coverage, particularly in humid forests which ...

Migratory divides highlight intraspecific flexibility in the stopover tactic of black kites

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
In migrating raptors, route choice can be influenced by multiple factors, including geography, weather conditions, energy constraints, and social interactions. The selected route may in turn be associated with different patterns of stopover habitat use, yet the relationship between the two remains poorly understood.

Microstructure determines the difference between the mechanical properties of melanized and non‐melanized domestic pigeon feathers

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Melanins are natural pigments widely found in various structures of organisms and are responsible for avian feather coloration, contributing to signaling and camouflage. It has also been suggested that they maintain and enhance the mechanical properties of keratinized structures, such as reducing feather wear.
