I am a quantitative, avian, landscape ecologist with @USGSCoopUnits and faculty in @aucfwe at @AuburnU. Tweets/likes don't represent anyone but me.

Fun with #ornithology data. Which species of #forest #birds have the worst habitat, as defined by the technicians who had to do the veg surveys? Did your study species make the list? RT to save your colleagues from making the wrong choice for their next experiment! #AOSMember

Really proud of this research I spearheaded while at the @SMBC with @selvaorgco. Expanding the options for tropical coffee farmers to protect biodiversity while improving profitability is one of the more important projects I've worked on.

Shade-grown coffee provides habitat for tropical birds, but it doesn't support all species all of the time; land-sparing will help! Our exciting new @SMBC & @selvaorgco cross-continental collaboration is out! @PeterPMarra @ScottSillett @pipridae #AOSMember

Easily the most analytically challenging project I've ever worked on. Have a look if you want to learn about brilliant science orchestrated by @kbrenmc or see mixed effects Cox proportional hazards models with time-varying covariates in action!.
My favorite experiment from my PhD is now published and open access! Check it out to see whether social and asocial species perform differently on a social cognition task: @JonathonValente.#birds #cognition #socialintelligencehypothesis.

They are constructing a bike path outside my "office" and I just listened to construction workers argue for 30 minutes about the location of a broom. Not great for productivity. #workingfromhome.
