IMPORTANT news: 14 guillemots and 4 razorbills from the current mortality have all come back negative for #HPAIV from @APHAgovuk This supports the idea that this mortality is related to prey availability. Is this the extreme marine heatwave's effects? #aukwreck #heatwave

With Storm Petrel recently discovered breeding on @IofMayBirdObs as well as myself finding a dead one on Bass Rock in early 80’s, and now this one within sight of Edinburgh, are we missing potential breeders on the Forth islands? @ScottishBirding @FifeBirdNews @birdinglothian

Sandeel fishing is not permitted for 2023 🚫 UK fishers cannot catch or swap any of the UK’s pre-agreed quota for sandeel fishing in the North Sea. This will help benefit our seabird populations and allow wildlife to thrive 🐟 Read more: gov.uk/government/news/no-sa…

20 years ago this week I started a job working on offshore wind farm, seabirds and marine mammals. 5 years ago I lived on Orkney surveying divers and seaduck for the then proposed SPA. This month at @HiDefSurvey we’re surveying the same site. Plus ca change.
