With thanks to @LossLabOSU for the heavy lifting to organize and set up, we got to do that cool thing this week that the #students will never, ever forget. [mist-netting and #banding of wild #birds conducted through multiple layers of authorization] #OKState

@Seiurus @n_a_gilbert I was thinking about this too but assumed Beryl was tracking too far east - otherwise I'd be out after our first state record Sooty Tern. And yeah we somehow have 3 frigatebird records at Lake Carl Blackwell near Stillwater, somehow none of them associated with tropical storms.

@n_a_gilbert To be clear @LossLabOSU did the hard work to find the bird, I merely dropped everything and zipped out there in time to put a 2nd pair of eyeballs on it.

Welcome to OSU @n_a_gilbert!! And here's a good story. We had our first meet-up to talk shop planned for today. Instead, we found and chased a Bronzed Cowbird (the first record for eastern Oklahoma - pics below) & still managed to talk some shop in the meantime!

Thrilled to share that I am joining the Department of Integrative Biology at Oklahoma State University as an assistant professor! Very excited for this next chapter!

Stillwater, Oklahoma tornado today. Luckily it didn't touch down until the storm had moved to the north over rural areas. @sara_loss got this pic of the tornado after we emerged from shelter and as it moved safely away from town

We had a "Little Sit" get together for our lab group this morning (like a mini version of a "Big Sit, which is an all day bird count at one location). It was cold but fun and fueled by donuts and @SMBC bird-friendly coffee!
