So star-struck 🤩 A rarity for the state, this Golden-winged Warbler flew into one of the 4 nets we were able to open yesterday morning. A lifer for most of us and the first potential pollen sample taken for the species 💛 All birds handled safely and with proper permits ✨

That's a wrap! Yesterday I sent the full manuscript of Birds & Flowers to @pelagicpublish. But as I describe in this short blog post, the hard work does not end there, there's still lots to do! #birds #pollinators #WritingCommunity #AuthorsOfTwitter jeffollerton.co.uk/2023/06/01/tha…
inaturalist.org/observations/1… I am constantly finding gorgeous songbird flower-foraging photos but these are definitely up there as a fave 🥹
Swabbing for pollen and banding with a great team today! @CSU_Ecology @CSU_FWCB beautiful bird shots by @Vireos_etc #fieldwork #banding #ornithology
Woah, a pollen horn (gummed up feathers from nectar) on a Prothonotary Warbler? 🤯

Ooo so much pollen on that TEWA 😮
The amazing @annika__abbott captured this shot of a Bullock’s Oriole at one of the plum swales we’ve been observing! This bird moved between multiple flowers and multiple shrubs, gently probing its bill into the flowers. Exciting potential pollinator behavior 🌸
Nashville Warbler foraging in vine maple. Super cool observation, as I've observed warblers (other than OCWA) foraging in vine maple, but never had such amazing photo evidence: check out the pollen on the bill and head in the second pic! inaturalist.org/observations/1…
Collecting my first Colorado bird-pollen sample! we set up nets yesterday and promptly caught an Orange-crowned Warbler 🥰 looking forward to a beautiful and birdy spring
Master Bander @JS_Rousseau and a station volunteer taking a pollen sample from a Wilson’s Warbler at Luckiamute Banding Station (OR)! We’re looking forward to seeing what pollens this little bird could be carrying 🐥🌸 carolyncoyle.wixsite.com/sapproject
Happy #EarthDay2023! Here’s an Orange-crowned Warbler enjoying a blossom.
Pollen covered Orange-crowned Warbler. I've never seen an OCWA coated like this before, but it really shows how songbird feathers can trap pollen! A beautiful photo captured by Jamie Simmons in Corvallis, OR.
I don't know why but this Orange-crowned Warbler stuffing its little face into this flower cracks me up inaturalist.org/observations/1…
Another cool songbird flower foraging observation/action-shot. Shout out to all the amazing citizen scientists out there that capture shots of these oft-ignored plant-pollinator interactions! 🌸 inaturalist.org/observations/1…
I am absolutely obsessed with this OCWA and it’s pollen-dipped bill. Happy spring! 🌸 inaturalist.org/observations/1…
The folks banding at @BDMCount shred this lovely video about the research I lead (@CSU_SaP_Project) - check it out! Pollen collection in action 🤩 instagram.com/p/Cq3RSYeJStw/…
There’s been a lot of newcomer migratory (perhaps migratory) birds, passing through some of the areas I frequent, in the Civic Center locality of Downtown Los Angeles. This is the first time I’ve seen this particular species - a yellow bird, and it drinks nectar from flowers.

Hey, Twitter! I’m job hunting and would love any leads on positions related to bioacoustics, wildlife research, community outreach, conservation biology, and environmental justice!
Finishing out the banding season on a high note with this very surprising visitor to Colorado - Golden-winged Warbler!
So star-struck 🤩 A rarity for the state, this Golden-winged Warbler flew into one of the 4 nets we were able to open yesterday morning. A lifer for most of us and the first potential pollen sample taken for the species 💛 All birds handled safely and with proper permits ✨

So proud of our fantastic graduate students in @CSU_FWCB at @ColoradoStateU!!!
Bittersweet feelings during graduation today. Excited to see where life takes me next but also feeling quite sad to think about parting ways with the incredible @CSU_FWCB community. Grad school has been a wild ride but I’m grateful for every moment of it.
Woah, a pollen horn (gummed up feathers from nectar) on a Prothonotary Warbler? 🤯
Ooo so much pollen on that TEWA 😮
Excited to be working on this project!

Awesome!
Nashville Warbler foraging in vine maple. Super cool observation, as I've observed warblers (other than OCWA) foraging in vine maple, but never had such amazing photo evidence: check out the pollen on the bill and head in the second pic! inaturalist.org/observations/1…
Our new paper in BioScience shows that students with multiple marginalized identities are disproportionately impacted by sexual harassment - tinyurl.com/33veb9wf - we call on institutions to hold perpetrators accountable!

Watching birds show up on radar never gets old to me 🤩
A beauty of a bird take-off from Key West a couple of nights ago. 📡🐦
Happy #EarthDay2023! Here’s an Orange-crowned Warbler enjoying a blossom.

OK, I have kept it secret for long enough, it's time to announce the title and cover of my next book for @pelagicpublish. It is.....🥁🥁🥁 ..... "Birds & Flowers: An Intimate 50 Million Year Relationship" Excited to see this live on Pelagic's website! pelagicpublishing.com/products/birds…
