Really honored to attend the opening of Bird Safe on View, an art / science / solutions exhibit at @maineaudubon focused on the BirdSafe Maine project I’ve worked on for five years. I wish I took more pictures, but was too busy having fun!

The first paper of your PhD is always so exciting! 🤩 An all-#Galbatross effort, "A focus on females can improve science and conservation!" See press release (www.audubon.org/news/researc...) and the study here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...! #FemaleBirds #FemaleBirdDay
In Research, Ignoring Female Birds Harms Scientific Understanding
A new study shows that ecological research often ignores or excludes data on female birds and behavior, resulting in erroneous assumptions on conservation.

Wow, there are lots of people here all of sudden.
I don’t often know really what to do with my social media accounts—but I enjoy following discourse and sharing work occasionally.
Here are some pictures of a small Araucaria augustifolia tree. Critically endangered, native to SE Brazil.

This cannot be said enough. An armed society is an unfree society!
Lewiston is still in lock down. Since the gun debate is so often framed around freedom what about the freedom of movement, to leave your house, go to work, go out? Why does your right to Rambo cosplay trump my mom's right to run to the grocery store?
Mass shooting in my home town. Suspect at large according to the local newspaper. My mom is fine. It's just...the "serious" people who tell me I'm suppose to respect the people & opinions that keep this country drowning in guns. Fuck that & fuck them
