Our collaborative project exploring the link between nesting phenology and substrate property, is still ongoing, with collected data in Asia and America. You monitor ground-nesting birds in the tropics? Then consider joining us! Contact me :) #ornithology#birds
After a successful primer bioacoustics workshop last year, we are planning to conduct an advanced acoustics workshop! 😄
If this is of interest, please take a moment to fill out this pre-survey form (https://t.co/8itCdBzZHP).
Please share with those who might be interested!
Super excited to see my first DPhil paper and my first first-author paper in print! 🪶🪺 Many thanks to my awesome supervisors, @iremsepil and Ben Sheldon ✨ and my favourite artist, @PariSatarkar for the endless supply of great tit illustrations 🐣
🥳 My second PhD chapter is out in @SpringerANCO 🥳
🦅⚔️ What happens if a feared predator loses its dangerous weapons or swaps them for harmless? 🤯 This study on predator recognition will both amuse and surprise you 🤩 #Ornithology@asab_org @EthoGes

Earlier this morning I received very good news from DCF Desert National Park, Jaisalmer. He and his staff of @ForestRajasthan documented 12 #GIB in a single frame. Habitat conservation is key to revive this spp. Kudos to entire team of #DNP@orijeet@and_ecology@IUCNRedList
Thanks to our sponsor Tracy Aviary (@TracyAviary), FI is proud to offer a $2000 Travel Award to help a marginalized or historically excluded student to attend any conference, workshop, or training opportunity in a natural sciences field for Summer 2025.

With @_malavika_m, @IDsignaling and others not on X, we document Little Owl densities in Hungarian villages reached a whopping 176 calling males over 6.6 https://t.co/ktkdbp8Wcc!🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉 This is higher than the entire Czech population 💔 & the highest of any European owl sp.!
Anyone interested to ask questions on the evolution of Shola Sky Island birds, we have quite a few genomes --and many fantastic stories to get you started 😀
Please DM to discuss

My review on defences against brood parasites and cuckoo speciation is now available in the latest issue of @AvianBiology along with 4 other outstanding reviews. I hope it will inspire other researchers in the field #PhDlife#broodparasitism#ornithology#cuckoo
📌Just published: "Meta-analysis of the acoustic adaptation hypothesis reveals no support for the effect of vegetation structure on acoustic signalling across terrestrial vertebrates"

It was a Yellow-throated Sparrow, that led Dr. Sálim Ali to pursue ornithology!
For his birth anniversary, we made his portrait in pixel art style, similar to our species distribution maps. The next image is the distribution map of the species

The Tschida Lab is keen to recruit a new PhD student in this upcoming cycle. We are on the hunt for students interested in the neural circuits that regulate vocal communication and other social behaviors. Happy to chat more with interested students! Please RT!
I'm excited to share our new review (and also my first, first-author paper🤯) on Vocal individuality in owls, from the perspective of Tinbergen's four questions, now out in the Journal of Ornithology @DOrnitholGes
Read it here https://t.co/V7fMBNE9k2 1/🧵

4/🧵We also found large taxonomic gaps, and suggest that future studies consider more call types, more species, and also account for age and sex-specific functions of vocal identity 📢
