New paper: in great tits, male nestlings grow bigger and show stronger immune defenses than females, showing fast growth doesn’t compromise immunity, likely thanks to priority access to food from parents. ➡️ vist.ly/4u2yv #ornithology #birds #ecoimmunology #dimorphism #development 🪶

A throwback to the EUFLYNET COST Action meeting in Vienna at the end of February. Excited to be part of this fantastic network of bird migration scientists and conservationists working across the European–African migratory flyway. www.euflynet.eu
