I'm becoming more and more convinced that @Office is on its final legs as the go to software suite. While @Microsoft will continue dominating the field, @onedrive and the new @Outlook clearly reduce work efficiency. Can't even copy and paste sometimes.

Can we just use hyphens? Come on, en dashes just want to be considered different so we need to use Insert - Symbol or short keys.

Hey @AndrewBarnas. Just make sure that if you explore the following activity over your awesome PhD skills, don’t wear that Hi-Vis vest.
Still to this day one of the funniest golf skits I’ve ever watched

Neat project with good people! Also, co-advising graduate students rocks. @micheltkohl @UGAWarnell
PLEASE SHARE: Come study swamp bears in S. GA and the Okefenokee NWR! We are hiring a black bear PhD student (Aug | Jan Start) to be part of a multi-student/postdoc effort to estimate spatial distribution/abundance of bears. Plenty of opportunity for student-led questions.

Please help if you can!! There's a lot of training data needs. We have a similar need for aerial imagery of animals. https://t.co/7OMGxMIt3F

Hey Wildlife twitter! (Please RT) We are hoping to improve AI detections for semi-aquatic mammals (otter, beaver, muskrat) but need more training data. 🦦🦫 Does anyone have trail camera photos (examples below) you could share?

Hey potential PhD students. Check out @Elmore_Ecology’s post. He’s a great scientist. Plus, as a new faculty member, you’re likely to gain insights from him that older fuddy duds don’t share such as starting your own lab 🙂
Please RT! I'm looking for a PhD student interested in grassland #bird conservation! Specific questions open to development. Please contact me for informal inquiries.
