Thank you, Justin Trudeau for ensuring the young people of Canada are never alone. The funds granted to Kids Help Phone will ensure every young person in Canada can reach out for support 24/7 by phone or text in English and French.

Extremely excited to be continuing my love of songbird research over the next year!!

Today Abby Hensel successfully defended her Master's thesis! I'm very proud of Abby: her two-chapter Neuroscience & Behaviour MSc thesis explores bioacoustics and geographic variation in Savannah Sparrows. Congratulations Abby! 🎤🐦

I'm so excited to see this research submitted!! It's been a long time coming, I cannot thank Dan Mennill enough for his help on this project, and for telling me all about day-to-day life in the field!

My first first-author paper, accepted! A tremendous thank you to my supervisor Dan Mennill and all my collaborators for helping to make this possible. I'm so excited to soon be able to share this project, it's been a long time coming!

So excited and proud of this work! 🐦🎶

The second chapter of my MSc thesis, coming soon!

My first first-authored paper was published today in Animal Behaviour! "Microgeographical variation in birdsong: Savannah sparrows exhibit microdialects in an island population" bit.ly/3N4uUmN With a team of collaborators I describe microdialects in bird songs. 🐦🎶🗺️
