Once upon a time a scientist + an artist decided to collaborate. Lovely depictions of prairies then & now on the way https://t.co/fItmeAC6TY

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

Some gorgeous science art is on its way. Can't wait to see the fruits of this project! https://t.co/ZvaBLMNaAR

@fifthdayprairie have had the same thought myself many times!! So. Many. Plants.

@Texosporium SILLAC < hot springs. You win!

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

@_djli likewise! Sad to be missing out on all the ecology fun

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

@BeckSamBar would love to collaborate with you on phylo (or other) stories from my dataset. Way more there than 1 thesis worth :)

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

@BeckSamBar yes! And will hope to meet you IRL sometime, too!

Seems to me a lot of excellent talks rely upon data collected over large areas / periods of time by people other than the presenter #ESA2016

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

Good job twitter friends! So much #ESA2016 in my feed, I'm staying in the loop even from the middle of a WI prairie

[Amy Alstad @AmyAlstad]

Perks of presenting on day 1 of #NACCB2016: now get to relax, soak up great conservation science, + meet my academic grandpa @nickmhaddad!

[Nancy Baron @Nancy_Baron]

Karen Oberhauser: The potential monarch listing process has brought a lot of people together --which is a good thing. #NACCB2016

[Nancy Baron @Nancy_Baron]

Farmer: I can't believe I am planting milkweed. I have been pulling it since I was a kid. You're turning my world upside down. #NACCB2016

Saw my first #monarch of the year in Madison today. And reported it to @journeynorthorg #citizenscience #phenology
