Clouds of birds filled Chicago's skies one night last fall, a rare spectacle for birders. As warblers and sparrows and thrushes soared over the city, hundreds crashed into windows. Will these bird strikes continue? My Living Bird story for @CornellBirds

The @NatlParkService recently designated its newest national park, which includes Wisconsin's Ice Age Trail, an amazing relic of another time that crosses the state. I wrote about it in 2016, but I highly recommend taking a hike on it yourself if you can! https://t.co/2QzWCieeC6

We may look back on this year as one that changed how and when we use eDNA in research and conservation. My latest for @NewsfromScience. https://t.co/pzI85Vuh2D

Which binoculars are good for children? @audubonsociety gave my kids and friends the chance to test some out. The results are in the magazine’s fall issue.

Thank you to @J_KelterDavis for the photos!

Whip-poor-wills are camouflaged, nocturnal, and elusive. They sing on summer nights at dusk or when the moon is full. Earlier this year, I tagged along with researchers studying them. Thank you to @J_KelterDavis for her awesome photos.

Two women searching for dugouts, or canoes carved from a single tree, are creating a virtual library that will tell us more about the past landscape and its people. Thank you, @brookeborel, for letting me write about this cool project for @undarkmag. https://t.co/lUXUigqJwL

Loved this research-filled and wonderfully told story by @RachelNuwer, who artfully explains that our negative views on trophy hunting in Africa hurt wildlife and conservation on the continent. https://t.co/sE3UShpKcO
