Some things come to an end. After 7 months of cacao, motocars extremely full of material and hours of walking, #ECOCACAO second season is over. Different background now, but looking forward to seeing the results of our work🍫🌳🐜🐝

🪲Our arthropod research has unveiled more than 500 insect species (including 50+🐜)
and 106 🕷-species!
But that's not all: 🧬 We've also built a DNA database for 319 arthropod species on all farms!

🦇And let's not forget the bats!
25 bat species have been recorded, all with a keen appetite for arthropods! 🦟🍽️
We're analyzing their hunting buzzes 🎤📈 and try to get fecal samples for DNA studies of their prey.

Join us on this incredible journey of discovery and ecological importance!

🌳🐦Nuestros esfuerzos en el @LIFEprogramme #OlivaresVivos+ para la restauración de los olivares siguen dando frutos 😏
🌼 Currucas, mirlos y zorzales dispersarán las semillas de los lentiscos de las lindes por otras zonas, llenando de vida y diversidad el paisaje agrícola 🎉🐦🌳

So cool to see what the @AgroEcoDiv and the ECO-OLIVES project are doing to help generate a more holistic understanding of the network of ecosystem-services in olive orchards. 🫒 🪲🕷️🐝🦇🐦 Such knowledge is vital for well-designed #IntegratedPestManagement.
Our last round of mist netting was successfully completed today in #ECOOLIVES!
🥳🫒🐦🫒
After ~ 200 birds in the hand we gained a lot of experience and were stunned by the huge variability of each individual 🌟
Now happy to gain more sleep until the next round starts in Sep.! 😴
