My first first-authored paper was published today in Animal Behaviour!
"Microgeographical variation in birdsong: Savannah sparrows exhibit microdialects in an island population"
With a team of collaborators I describe microdialects in bird songs. 🐦🎶🗺️
The second chapter of my Master's thesis is out today in Ornithological Applications:
"Acoustic monitoring provides reliable and predictable underestimates of population size and longevity in wild Savannah Sparrows"
With a great team of collaborators🐦🎶🎙
My first first-author paper, accepted! A tremendous thank you to my supervisor
@DMennill
and all my collaborators for helping to make this possible. I'm so excited to soon be able to share this project, it's been a long time coming!
Accepted! "Microgeographic variation in bird song: Savannah Sparrows exhibit microdialects in an island population." 🐦🎤🌎
Coming soon (after some revisions to address great reviewer feedback) to one of our lab's favourite journals: Animal Behaviour.
I'm pleased to announce that Abby Hensel will join our Neuroscience and Behaviour Master's program to study geographic variation in songbird vocalizations this fall. Welcome

Accepted! "Passive acoustic monitoring provides reliable under-estimates of population size and longevity in wild Savannah Sparrows."
Coming soon to Ornithological Applications. A project led by
@hensel_abby
and our outstanding team of collaborators. 🐦🎶🎙️
After reviews and revision: accepted!
"Microgeographic variation in bird song: Savannah Sparrows exhibit microdialects in an island population."
We show higher song similarity to neighbours vs distant birds. Coming to Anim Behav! By
@Hensel_Abby
& our collaborative team! 🐦🎵🌎
I'm so excited to see this research submitted!! It's been a long time coming, I cannot thank
@DMennill
enough for his help on this project, and for telling me all about day-to-day life in the field!
Abby and I submitted a paper we've been working on for years, with our amazing team of collaborators, concerning geographic variation in Savannah Sparrow song. Great work

During the pandemic, Abby never got to visit
@BSSkentisland
. So I photoshopped her there:
