Excited to a have new paper out in JFO Association of Field Ornithologists examining edge effects on nest survival for shrubland and forest #birds! Worked with former Antioch Antioch New England MS student Savannah McInvale on this meta-analysis. #ornithology Read the paper here: journal.afonet.org/vol95/iss2/art…

New publication on home range size and overlap in Kirtland's Warblers in The Bahamas! KIWAs have relatively large home ranges overall, yet hone in on fruit resources later in the dry season. #ornithology Read more here: ace-eco.org/vol19/iss2/art…

Sharing our new Ecology and Evolution paper! - the first to examine niche space of #bird nest materials. We found limited niche overlap in nest composition among species. Co-authored by Antioch New England MS students and Northern Research. #ornithology #ecology Read more here: doi.org/10.1002/ece3.7…
