Today I've been giving a seminar at Wroclaw university invited by the department of behavioural ecology! I've presented La Palma chaffinches paper (work from my masters with @MariaRecue13274 & @borjamila team) & I've also talked a bit about me in scientific world ;) thx

It's so nice to start again winter fieldwork, specially when u can see more than 40 cranes feeding next to some funny acorn-fed "iberico" pigs (Laguna de Fresnedilla, Plasencia).
