Nature Dawgs (dare I say “Bird Dawgs”??) at #AOS25! I enjoyed learning about painted buntings & intense lit reviews from fellow @universityofga.bsky.social scientists from the Warnell School of Forestry & Conservation.

Very excited to attend my first bird conference as an assistant professor next week at #AOS25! It's been 7 years since my last ornithology meeting and I couldn't be more excited to make new friends and chat avian ecology & conservation (1/X). Let's connect!

As a naturalist, I treasure meeting the non-human denizens of any new place I travel. This past week, I got to set foot in an island tropical rainforest for the first time in years thanks to #SFS2025 in Puerto Rico. What stunning forests!
