New bowerbird paper led by @menno_vanberkel! Male great bowerbirds build display courts that are linked to mating success, and we found that object availability 🧱 rather than male building ability 👷 explains variation in court quality https://t.co/R7zbCgn5g7

Can Australian magpies use tools? Maybe. More research is needed!
Excited to share mine and @beardedbirder's new paper on Preliminary tool use in Australian magpies:

Excited to announce 2 new #research papers on #AustralianMagpies from @BioSci_UniMelb & @latrobe exploring:
1) How #sleep loss impairs #cognition and song.
https://t.co/sBrscKdGk3
2) The impact of urban noise on cognitive performance in wild magpies https://t.co/ZXAAu8qTvr
Proud to have been invited as a co-author by @AnneAulsebrook to write about Light, Sleep and Performance in Diurnal Birds!
Check out the review paper:

Finally, the paper on Chicken colour discrimination on differently coloured backgrounds has made it to JEB's website! Besides interesting results, it also presents different methods to tackle such data. @LundVision

The ISBE Executive has awarded the prestigious Hamilton Lecture to Prof John Endler (Deakin University) at #ISBE2020. Working on fish, birds and reptiles, John studies the interaction between sensory systems, signals, and the environment. @BehavEcol

Finally out: Julia Höglund's paper! In short, owl cone vision is UV-blind but owl ocular media transmit quite a bit of UV. And owls cannot produce astaxanthin, so have no red oil droplets! Bad in daylight, good at night! @lundvision
