  5. 📢#OutNow in #OA: '#Seabirds in the #NorthEast #Atlantic: #ClimateChange Vulnerability and Potential #Conservation Actions' by Henry Häkkinen, Silviu Petrovan, Nigel G. Taylor, William J. Sutherland & Nathalie Pettorelli.

    This book was produced by the #Zoological Society of London and the University of Cambridge.

    '#Seabirds in the #NorthEast #Atlantic' collates information from the #scientific #literature, #nongovernmental organisations’ reports, #conservation practitioner input and online databases into a single volume, and provides a reference manual to assist conservation planning.

    It is intended to be used by anyone who wishes to identify #climatechange threats to #seabirds; to compare threats between different areas of the #NorthEast #Atlantic; to start a quantitative climate change vulnerability assessment for a #local population; or to review options for #conservation action in response to #climatechange.

    This egret is in its high breeding #plumage and seems to be trying to attract a mate.

  7. At the St Augustine Alligator Farm and #Zoological #Park is host to many #waterfowl species during nesting season, because the #birds are attracted to the protection against predators created by the alligators.
    The alligators rarely bother the birds, either, as this Snowy #Egret in the same water as the gators, demonstrates the point.
