Postdoc in bird sensory ecology. I mostly work on raptor vision, but I am also interested in raptor olfaction. In parallel, I am also a falconer.

Dans sa recherche, @ConstansMargot étudie un traité du 13e siècle rédigé par un troubadour et qui évoque aussi le comportement des oiseaux. Pr son étude, elle a sollicité @PotierSimon1, éthologue et fauconnier pr croiser les savoirs et les compétences.

Les fauconniers devaient être experts du comportement et de la biologie de leurs oiseaux. De leur sensibilité et de leur bien-êtra aussi. On observe une grde coherence entre ce que l'on trouve ds ces traités et les connaissances modernes en éthologie @PotierSimon1

We did not expect that. Our paper "How fast can raptors see?" was one of the most cited paper of the year in Journal of Experimental Biology. @almut_kelber @LundVision Very exciting news. If you want to read it, please follow this link: jeb.biologists.org/content/2…

Some news on my website. You can follow my records on this page : simonpotier.fr
Privileged to have provided illustrations for this review on differences in raptor vision between dietary behaviors by @PotierSimon1 out today! Great work Simon!
If you want to know how predatory and scavenging raptors differ in their visual abilities, please take a look at this review just published today ! It is all open access. @LundVision mdpi.com/1424-2818/12/10/400

We can do it! Seven #parrots among those species we would have lost forever without conservation efforts. Just the kind of inspiring news we need right now :-) #ConservationOptimism

Another review is out form our team. You want to know how do diurnal and nocturnal raptors see their world? It is open access so feel free to read and share: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Finally, our review on raptor vision with Simon and Mindaugas is out in a special issue on eyes and vision in non-model vertebrates, edited by Tom Baden: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @LundVision And it is all open access...
