Hummingbirds in Andes Mountains found nesting in colonies, defying norms https://phys.org/news/2025-03-hummingbirds-andes-mountains-colonies-defying.html paper: https://academic.oup.com/auk/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1093/ornithology/ukae063/7912599
"#Hummingbirds are often highly aggressive and territorial, but in the tough terrains of the #Andes Mountains, researchers found a species of #hummingbird is living cohesively with its peers... They live in a very harsh environment above the tree line... they may get easier access to mates and food resources by an exchange of information between members of a colony."

In the Central Peruvian Sierra, one ritual has been performed since the 16th century. The "Dance of the Conquest" mixes together masses, processions, banquets, dances through the community, at the intersection of religion and politics.
Combining ethnography and history, Isabel Yaya McKenzie offers, in this layered article, a fascinating reflection on #longuedurée, #memory, and lived temporalities.

Deglaciated soils in the Andes are nutrient-poor and can stay plant-free for over a century
The study found that these dung piles create nutrient hotspots, significantly enriching the soil and promoting plant cover in areas where glaciers are retreating
