Spotted several Yellow-rumped Warblers right outside my apartment! Took these photos through my home office window! According to CLO, Yellow-rumped Warblers don’t breed in MS, but I put out a few clumps of raw wool just in case. If they don’t use it, other birds will! 🪺

Getting slightly better at feather ID. I believe this is a redtailed hawk feather! Perhaps a juvenile? A secondary or tail feather? 🪶

If you are willing to participate, I am including a link to a Google Form to spotlight a scientist or two a week. It will be a quick, name, what do you study, advice for a middle schooler and asking for a pic so they can see. Totally volunteer. forms.gle/ka3GTEVihzpsKJpp7

I write an "ask a marine biologist" column for SCUBA Diving Magazine. If you have questions about the ocean, animals that live there, or people who work to study or protect them, ask and I may answer in a future column! Please re-skeet or otherwise share! 🧪🦑

Beautiful indigo bunting! I got some surprisingly decent photos considering how far away it was. 🩵💚 So happy to go birding with a great friend! It was a much needed destressor from my dissertation. 🥰

This field guide is hilarious! I’ve enjoyed thumbing through it between writing breaks. Features some common birds plus various tips on birding, feeders, & journaling. I also love this style of illustration! 10/10 highly recommend 😁

the internet is not separate from real life at this point — i’ve spent too many years on various platforms making real friendships, finding jobs, etc to believe that distinction so our social identities & relationships online should be under our own control, not a private company’s
