Quite a legendary 3 days of bird banding for our tick-borne disease ecology research & for the 3 #NREM classes that assisted! (1/x) Oklahoma State University Extension OSU Ferguson College of Agriculture @OSU_Research (all birds captured w/ appropriate permits & released unharmed - many photos in thread by Clay Billman)

I'm looking for a talented graduate student to join our outstanding team and lab at Mississippi State to conduct collaborative social science research on landowner priorities for enrollment in the Conservation Reserve Program. Please see below: wfscjobs.tamu.edu/jobs/m-s-assis…

Great showing by MSU Forest Resources WFA at #TWS2022. And we're actually missing a couple of folks in this photo!

I feel so lucky to have such inspiring women as mentors!! #WomenOfWildlife #TWS2022 Kristine Evans Courtney Duchardt Dr. Melanie R. Boudreau

Wisdom, the world’s oldest known wild bird, recently returned to Midway Atoll! The beloved Laysan albatross, or mōlī, is at least 71 years old. Biologists first identified and banded Wisdom in 1956 after she laid an egg, and the large seabirds aren’t known to breed before age 5.

Good luck to all the PhD students this week, where all their family try to understand what they do and ask when they will be done.

Into animal biologging? How about long-term projects with lots of data? We need a postdoc to help us out! Come work for @street_ecology and me! 👇👇 explore.msujobs.msstate.edu/cw/en-us/job/5… #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #phdchat
