When interacting with wildlife we should ask: “How might the animal be affected by my actions?”

🌟Turtles swam excessively for 90 min after release

Here's a snap (and the recorded song) of a Superb Fairywren from the most recent #fieldwork trip in southern NSW. There were four males and over a dozen females around a pretty small body of water. Was super fun to watch them all and listen to their chatter for a bit 🔈🪶

Hi everyone!
I’m a postdoctoral researcher working on #AcousticEcology at JCU in Australia. In a nutshell, I listen to the sounds of the bush to figure out what animals are around.

Here’s a video of one of the most adorable frogs calling, the Bornean tree hole frog (Metaphrynella sundana).
