New Swainson's Warbler paper out! 🚨 SWWA breeding in LA and wintering in Jamaica tracked to identify an East/West migratory divide. Migration phenology and rate differed between indv. from each pop. and most birds took direct overwater diurnal flights! 😎doi.org/10.5751/JFO-00134-93…

My MSc research looking at the impact of rainfall patterns on Swainson's Warbler space use has been published! Read our paper (w/@OSU_AvianEco @PeterPMarra ) to see how these secretive birds respond to changing conditions! @AmOrnith @BirdsCaribbean 🐦🇯🇲

Congratulations to Dr. @meaghan_regina on a phenomenal dissertation and defense! Couldn't be prouder or more inspired. She's a force to be reckoned with, so keep your eyes on her. Excited to see future work with @marmmunoz!

Did you hear that? That was the sound of a new PhD being minted! Congrats to Dr. @naturehoffman on the stellar presentation and defense of his research "Managing forests and understanding social intolerance for Ohio’s declining timber rattlesnakes."

Presenting our new paper in Ecology with @PeterPMarra @rustyjaywright @Protonotaria: The first experimental evidence that resident #birds compete with wintering migrants!

Ever found a big, brown spider in your woods or in your house? I made a video all about the dark fishing spider, which is one of the most common “giant” spiders in Eastern North America. *spoiler alert: they’re harmless! #spider #scicomm #fishingspider

Really exciting that @Astro_Jessica has made it to the space station! First ornithologist in space!
After a four-orbit, six-hour journey to the @Space_Station, three Earthlings opened the hatch to their new home at 6:12pm ET. Watch the crew being welcomed aboard our orbiting laboratory and ask questions using #AskNASA: teapaw.org/i/broadcasts/1BdGYeLdW…

Currently, Jamaicans are fighting to keep their land wild as it is threatened by mining and development. I have the privilege of studying birds in 🇯🇲 and their endemic species are breathtaking (not just birds), important, and deserve to be protected. #savecockpitcountry – at Jamaica

#AOSMember Chris Tonra (@OSU_AvianEco) is quoted in this great story on students working to reduce bird collisions with windows at the Ohio State University! #ornithology

In Myanmar's tropical forests 99 million years ago, a baby bird left the nest for the first time. It didn't get far. audubon.org/news/see-ancient…

Something incredible happened today! I saw a strange bird foraging near a net, unlike any other migrant we see in Jamaica. I lifted my binos and IT WAS A KIRTLANDS WARBLER 😱 This is the first known record of a KIWA in JA. I still can’t believe it! #ornithology #JamBirds2019 – at Jamaica

A lot of influential science has come from @SMBC ornithologists who created these Font Hill plots, and so much amazing research has been done since the inception decades ago. I think about this often while taking in the beauty of it all. #FontHill #Jamaica #Ornithology – at Jamaica

In less than a week we will be heading to Jamaica to study wintering migratory birds! Stay tuned at #JamBirds2019 to keep up with the field season. In addition to the mig birds, we will also be tweeting about the gorgeous native species we catch along the way! Sneak peak:

Well, @rustyjaywright and @Protonotaria are getting married today! They are both #ornithology power houses, amazing lab mates, and the best of friends. I’m so happy for you guys! 😍🐥❤️

Looking for a Master's student to start in January. Previous experience collecting or managing trail camera data would be great, but not required.

We are now hiring our crew for our winter migratory bird work in Jamaica with @SMBC! Please share! Come work with us and you can explore mangrove forests while enjoying a nice warm winter in the Caribbean! Plus observe an abundance of cool birds! 🐥🦖👍 wfscjobs.tamu.edu/jobs/field…
