Punishing college students for protesting him.

Pressuring TV networks to fire late night talk show hosts for criticizing him.

Suing newspapers for reporting he doesn’t like.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

No one is safe from gun violence in America.

We do not have to keep living like this.

Instead of inciting more violence, our political leaders should use this moment to unite us around common sense gun reforms that a majority of Americans support.

Or maybe you finally grabbed a copy of @stonemaiergames.com #wyrmspan, designed by the talented @connievdc.bsky.social, this year while attending #GenCon2025

I've designed a box organizer and some neat little upgrades for this beaut of a game as well.

Schematic of the structure of the paper. We looked at dietary differences between ages and sexes, seasons and habitat types. We looked at the identity of prey in the diet and the number of dietary items.

New publication! 🚨

If you're looking for a paper on what great tits eat then this is for you! 🦋🐛🐞🪲🐦

We looked at variation in diet using DNA metabarcoding and found lots of differences between adult and young birds and between habitat types.

Re-upping this: If you are an ornithologist (ideally U.S.-based) who uses bird banding or BBS data in your work, I'd love to hear from you! You could comment as something like "a scientist from a state university" (for example) if you don't want to use your name.

Cute couple at the feeder this morning.

Pls share: I'm seeking ornithologists willing to comment about how the Bird Banding Lab &/or Breeding Bird Survey are crucial to their research & conservation efforts, for a piece for @therevelator.org defending these programs. Reply, DM, or email me at rebecca dot heisman at gmail. #ornithology

happy to see our study on genetic parallelism of reproductive isolation in chickadee hybrid zones out in @evolletters.bsky.social—great work led by Georgy Semenov & Scott Taylor: doi.org/10.1093/evle...

An Augustinian pope implies the existence of a pope for every other month.

First time seeing one at my feeder yesterday.

Rose-breasted grosbeak slamming down sunflower seeds at the bird feeder like a maniac. Insert Thor "Another" gif.

New bird at the feeder today. This guy hung out for 30 minutes, just housing sunflower seeds.

SOOTHING BIRD FACT 🐦

Chickadees add additional "dees" to their "chick-a-dee-dee" alarm call depending on the severity of the threat they perceive. Captive chickadees presented with a predatory pygmy owl were so freaked out they strung together 23 "dees"!
