About 2 weeks to deadline for our 2 positions in Cellular/Molecular Biology at Occidental College! The search is broad, could incl. genetics/genomics. Main thing is having a wet lab w/ undergrad researchers & willingness to teach the cell/molec intro course (+ your speciality)

Hi it’s migration szn. Birds are on the move & are hitting windows bc the reflection looks like the sky/trees. IF YOU FIND A BIRD THIS TIME OF YEAR THAT LETS YOU PICK THEM UP, IT’S NOT OK. PUT BIRD IN A BOX, DO NOT CUDDLE BIRD, DO NOT RELEASE BIRD, GET BIRD MEDICAL HELP ASAP

Been on hardcore-birding hiatus for a while, but decided to head out this morning… Found a freakin Townsend’s Warbler!!! Equally as excited that several chicagoans got to see it as well!!

11 years ago, I attended a birding camp in CO. It was my first-ever birding w/ anyone my age & I cried the entire way home, missing all my new friends. I’m now back at the very same place, but this time presenting my own bird research at AOS. Things come full circle sometimes!

What do you do at a bird conference before presentations? Go see some snow chickens and rosy finches, of course! (And, maybe an incredibly majestic moose as well)

Spotlight on the Steller’s Jays during #AOS24! A lot more than 1 species….An ancient hybrid zone….and more!! Love these birds, love the people! We’ve got a great jay team 💪 (Stealing my IG story and sharing it over here + my amazing iPhone photo of a STJA at the conference)

That's Not a Hybrid: How to Distinguish Patterns of Admixture and Isolation By Distance | Molecular Ecology Resources onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/17… Very important paper! Indeed, I have also noticed that Structure/Admixture plots are often overinterpreted as introgression.

Popping by because today we had some incredible luck snagging a displaying pair of Secretarybirds AND the most insane mind-blowing encounter with the critically endangered Montane Blue Swallow (an entire family!!!) Crummy back of camera shots of mom, dad, and one of the babies!

I haven’t opened this app in months, but hey to the bird folks still here! Coming on to mention our new paper on the crazy Limpkin movements that happened across the eastern US the last few years! Very excited to see this finally come out doi.org/10.1080/155944…

Science peeps! Hot Limpkin Summer is now open access (for 6 months). Check out this fun project we worked on regarding the cool and sudden explosion of Limpkins across North America tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
