Postdoc opportunity alert! My PhD advisor is hiring a postdoc to work on a fantastic new project on the genomics of color evolution in one of the most extraordinary avian groups, the Rainbow Lorikeets. evol.mcmaster.ca/~brian/evoldir…

FYI Charlotte the stingray is not pregnant with shark rays (unfortunately impossible) but she is also not pregnant with clones of herself (also impossible) it's much weirder than that.

The biggest hummingbird in the world is a new species. Now out in PNASNews and 8 years in the making, here's how we figured it out with mini tracking devices, genomics, and a century and a half of museum specimens.👇 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵1/

The Amazon rainforest doesn't just remove ~2 billions tons of CO2 every year. It also moves ~20 billions tons of water through evotranspiration, the so-called "flying rivers", critical for planetary balance. I wish more people knew this.

super cool study -- temperature DROPPED ~3 degrees C during an El Niño but birds shifted UP out of the lowlands into the mid-elevations during this time really quite large elevational shifts associated with drought far more than temperature @birdfiddler
