Someone posted: “There is nothing the remotest bit natural about capitalism. The bees are not stockpiling honey to sell at a profit. The trees are not charging the bees to build their hive. The soil is not leasing itself to the flowers. (Cont.)

Stress transmission in bird flocks–it’s a thing! 🐦🐦⚡️Damien R. Farine and I show what happens to zebra finches living together with stressed friends. Stoked to see this out, sooo much hard work went into it.

they're calling it a PhD

I met this gentle giant puppy on the streets of Greece, and I am looking for the best home for him. He loves cuddles, humans, cats, and dogs, and he recently survived a poisoned bait. I am willing to travel with him anywhere in Europe where he will be adopted #AdoptDontShop

Yes - bats surfing storm fronts during dark & blustery nights!🦇😃New research shows that noctule bats harness warm tailwinds to save energy during their migratory journeys mpg.de/23893833/1216-… MPI-AB is on Bluesky @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social Centre for the Adv Study of Collective Behaviour Edward Hurme 🦇 dechmannlab ⭐️

Back on the podcast! I interned with Science back in 2011. I had no clue when I got the job that I would co-host their podcast for the next 6 months with SarCrespi. So crazy to be interviewed by her after all these years. Also, bat migration is super cool, so give it a listen!

Remarkable quote that really gets to the heart of what "mending fences" means in this context.

Paper now out in Methods in Ecology and Evolution!! Looking forward to seeing how the community applies this method. Since the preprint, I updated the documentation and even made a video tutorial. Do check it out! [paper] doi.org/10.1111/2041-2… [documentation] alexhang212.github.io/YOLO_Behaviour…

Mexico used to have a party very similar to the Democrats called the PRD. The left abandoned it to create a party called MORENA. This is the result. an 80% approval rating after 5.5 years in power. Now is the time for the American left to do the same.

Feared this was coming. It will suck to lose the job I have loved for 19 years. If this goes through, it will gut the science capacity that helps us understand and conserve fish, wildlife, and our natural world. Expecting the RIF notices to go out end of next week.
