NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP)
Continuing efforts to hurt the research pipeline, the very late NSF GFRP solicitation no longer allows 2nd year PhD students to apply. Lots of these students chose not to apply last year because they were told they would have a better change once in their thesis lab www.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...

Supporting Ornithologists Impacted by U.S. Executive Orders & Federal Firings
We are shocked and dismayed by the U.S. federal governmentโs 2025 general assault on science.
News: We are offering ornithologists affected by recent executive orders and federal firings gratis membership and gratis meeting registration, and are soliciting input on additional ways we can offer support.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

New paper alert!
Piping plovers select nest sites with better views of predators, allowing early detection and evasive actions. A nest's "viewshed" should be considered in habitat management and understanding ground-nesting bird behavior.

New research alert! We contrasted how red fox and free-roaming cat activity correlates with the survival of federally threatened piping plovers. You can protect wildlife populations, and keep your cat safe and cozy by keeping your feline friends indoors.
