Academia to women in academia.....

Do you want to teach botany and environmental studies at a wonderful liberal arts college proximal to SEVEN level III ecoregions? We also have an active greenhouse and herbarium! One week left before we start reviewing applications! Hendrix College jobapply.page.link/D4Y2e

New pub! We estimate the ecosystem services values of Buffalo National River. This work doesn’t suggest the entire value of the BNR can be put into economic terms, but it does show there are economic benefits to keeping its ecology intact. doi.org/10.3375/21-45 @naturalareas

Had a blast reminiscing with Dr. Hardin about her work at Hendrix. What a legacy she leaves!

So excited to host Dr. J Drew Lanham in less than 48 hours Hendrix College. His evening program is free, open to the public, and requires no registration. Hendrix College Biology & Health Sciences is grateful have a partner like Hendrix-Murphy Foundation making this event a reality! Conservation is care + love!

The Environmental Biology class sampled macroinvertebrates at Cadron Creek for the #freshwaterbiodiversity lab and examined the critters before releasing them back to the water. It was a beautiful day and Shamindri Tennakoon, PhD and the class enjoyed being out in the field! #funinthefield

Had a great time looking for #fossils with the Hendrix Naturalists Club, my kids, and Shamindri Tennakoon, PhD in Leslie, Ark. lots of crinoids and bryozoans in the #rocks. Hendrix College Biology & Health Sciences

Had a nice time birding with these rad Hendrix College Biology & Health Sciences grads over break! Dipped on the Short-billed Gull but not on a good time! @Krajcir4birds Leah Crenshaw

Excited to have this paper out! Such a pleasure to@work@with John Veon on this undergraduate project. Hendrix College Biology & Health Sciences Hendrix College

Field work started this week! We established our net lanes and caught a couple of beauties in the process of training. Eastern river cooters, Magnolia Warbler, and Gray-cheeked Thrush.

It has been a record breaking year so far at MAPS at Stone Prairie. We’ve encountered 120 birds & some adorbs warblers, including this Black-and-white, a sp we haven’t caught since ‘21. On day 1, we caught these 3 late migrants which were 1sts for the station. Can you name them?

These temps won’t keep this Urban Wildlife Information Network team from setting up game cameras in Little Rock! Showed the new Hendrix College field team for 23-24 how to set cameras today after meeting with our partners at Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. They’re a solid bunch!

Congrats to the Urban Wildlife Information Network and a huge shout out to Mason Fidino, PhD for leading the charge and putting our findings so nicely into this thread 😊 Also grateful for the support of Arkansas Game and Fish Commission and Hendrix College in making this research happen for the Little Rock node of UWIN.

Over halfway through the MAPS season at Stone Prairie and it’s been a good one! Some highlights include this Yellow-billed Cuckoo & Worm-eating Warbler. Hendrix College skills are advancing & we’re enjoying working with our amazing partners Arkansas Game and Fish Commission & ANHC
