What an honour to kick-off the final session for #BOU2023 on Species interactions and community-level responses! There’s lots of great talks in #SESH7 coming up after my keynote on social behaviour & evolution of species interactions with ⬇️ (1/17)

And social transmission might even lead evolution by facilitating genetic change - we review gene-culture coevolution here: https://t.co/NoUjPHwEf0 (16/17) #BOU2023 #SESH7

Nice to be at #BOU2023 and back on Twitter to promote top science with #birds. Great work comes from communities where we treat each other well - even at tech companies! e.g. @supercell & Finland's largest tax payer 👇 https://t.co/JVeI8bJva8

It’s official, cuckoos are cool 😁 here’s what we know about chick colour polymorphisms & coevolution with Shining (bronze) Chalcites cuckoos ⬇️ heroic efforts by Alfredo Attisano and Brian Gill to bring it together

[Michael "What day is it?" Anderson @ShiningCuckoo]

Our new research in @AnimalEcology is out! Both cuckoos and their host chicks can be different colours. But why does nestling colour matter?🧵 👇
