@6_Amanda_6 Great finds! It's amazing how they're adapted to such a violent foraging style! Beautiful birds #KstateOrn2015

Had a lot of fun during big day! My favorite find was definitely a Pileated woodpecker, and finding a snapping turtle!#kstateorn2015

Heard several Bell's vireo this morning on the Konza! Very energetic call even at 6 am. Maybe their energy can rub off on me #kstateorn2015

To conserve species we must consider not only their present habitat but also where they migrate to #kstateorn2015 https://t.co/nJubejEoCw

[National Wildlife Federation @NWF]

30-37 million acres of forest habitat are lost each year for migratory birds across the globe: http://t.co/4JWuvGqUow

Saw about 200 Double Crested Cormorants fly overhead on Konza this morning!#kstateorn2015

FINALLY saw an Upland Sandpiper! He was not nearly as excited to see us as we were to see him. #KStateOrn2015

[Jackie Gehrt @jackie_gehrt]

Saw two Scissor-tailed flycatchers on the Konza Friday morning! And got to record their calls...#kstateorn2015

Couldn't fish in peace yesterday morning because I kept trying to identify bird songs and they wouldn't shut up#ornithprobs#kstateorn2015

[Jackie Gehrt @jackie_gehrt]

Saw a Ring-Necked Pheasant on the Konza today. It's awesome having a job where I get to see such amazing wildlife every day! #kstateorn2015

TWS just posted about a massive die off of Snow Geese due to avian cholera. Disease management is critical for conservation! #kstateorn2015

Went to Ernie Miller park over break and started classifying birds by Order and Family..#ornithprobs#kstateorn2015

A recent study showing the independent evolution of teeth in intermediate theropod species... http://t.co/w5tlGk97f5 #kstateorn2015

Saw two male American Robins fighting this morning. I wonder if that will look similar to what Greater-Prairie Chickens do #kstateorn2015
