Coming soon! The publication date for our book, #LowCarbonBirding, compiled and edited by @javiercaletrio, is just days away. The first copies have arrived @pelagicpublish and they look fantastic! This is a diverse and persuasive collection of essays about responsible birding.
Congrats to @JulieELarson, one of the @ESArestore early career publication award winners! For the paper, Julie counted THOUSANDS of seeds over the years to explore how functional ecology drives success in restoration. Find her at #ESA2022!
So many baby Macrozamia riedlei sprouting after fire. There was an old mama plant that had left a cache of spilled seeds over the years, and now they will grow to replace her #gozamia#ozplants
