A picture of a white-necked Jacobin hummingbird with a blue head, long beak, blue-green shoulders, and a white belly. The hummingbird is sitting on a branch and staring into the camera.
I have a new paper about these cute little guys (and some girls)!
White-necked Jacobins are interesting because all males and some but not all (!) females are brightly colored. The scientific question is why some but not all females?

Estos días hemos estado en el #26CEO presentando un póster sobre el solapamiento espacial de las aves del páramo. Ha sido muy refrescante ver el compromiso de tantos jóvenes y, sobre todo, de mujeres implicadas en la conservación de nuestra avifauna 🐦⬛🦅🦉

Soy ecóloga especializada en aves, un sector aún muy masculinizado donde, muchas veces, ser la única mujer es la norma. Siempre tenemos que demostrar más, aguantar condescendencias, justificar nuestra experiencia. Pero somos más que capaces. Este también es nuestro lugar 👧🏻🐦⬛🤍 #11F #WomenInScience
