New blog post summarizing results of our 2 recently published papers re: consequences of nesting phenology on productivity & survival of American kestrels!

2 new pubs about #phenology and bird #survival and #productivity. Both from @katiecallery thesis – way to go Katie!
Favorite new insight = birds w/ seasonal trade-offs btwn reproduction & survival may be most vulnerable to mismatch bc of constraints to nesting earlier. details🧵

Idaho birds are typically laying eggs and incubating on sunny April days. Check of this pic of a male kestrel roosting in our nest box with snow covering his back. Brrrr
DYK we've been monitoring American Kestrels in the Treasure Valley, Idaho for 30 years?!
Help us celebrate & continue research by adopting a nest box: kestrel.peregrinefund.org/ad…
You'll receive exciting updates through the breeding season about what's happening in YOUR adopted box!
What a great weekend at the #raptorresearch virtual conference!
We participated in an #americankestrel symposium to present our research & hear about other research being conducted across the annual cycle!

In the fall and winter, our American Kestrel nest boxes provide shelter for other roosting species like this Northern Flicker!

Kestrel eggs can vary in color and size, but we rarely see this much variation in one nest!

The American Kestrel genoscape is published! We found 5 genetically distinct groups. This information will help us understand region-specific population trends and plan for management where it is needed. Thank you to the people who sent feather samples! academic.oup.com/auk/article…

Looking through nestbox images is its own kind of #easteregg hunt! Lots of #americankestrels taking advantage of this lovely spring weather to lay some eggs!

Nest box monitoring is a great way to get to know your local area & wildlife. 📬
Thanks to Easton Hirsh & @UAFWildlife for providing data on cavity nesters like this boreal owl! 🦉

We are big fans of #BoiseMakers at #BoiseState. We now have 3D printed platforms to support cameras in nest boxes in all weather conditions, from Alaska to Florida! This means we can study kestrels everywhere. Please consider supporting broncosgive.boisestate.edu/g… @FCPhenology
Support @BSULibrary for #BroncosGive !
The #MakerLab has been AMAZING, helping us create custom equipment for our project, not to mention creating COVID-19 PPE!

@hawkwatchint's new 'In-hand Guide to Diurnal North American Raptors' is now available! Including molt, sexing, and ageing information for 17 commonly captured North American diurnal raptor species, with over 450 photos and 210 pages. Please share widely! hawkwatch.org/support/store/…
Cool research on drivers of long vs. short-distance dispersal in kestrels using banding data!
#americankestrel #ornithology #birdbanding
Excited to have my master's research on kestrel dispersal with @JLEHeath and @TrevorCaughlin out today in @AnimalEcology! And thanks @BW_Robinson for the kestrel illustration in the abstract besjournals.onlinelibrary.wi…
Big congrats to Full Cycle powerhouse @katiecallery on successfully defending her MS thesis! Really cool results coming out of our collaborative work on #americankestrels

Once nestlings at our @SERDP_ESTCP_RC boxes start to fledge we start seeing stumpy tail photos like these. That's them peeking out of their nest box and taking the leap into the outside world. They grow up so fast!
