Female song, female vocal tutoring of eggs, female vocal tutoring of fledglings, and how to survive parasites. The wonder of birds!

When will #fairywrens take risks to defend others under threat from a predator? Turns out their complex multilevel #sociality explains this. Read all about it in Current Biology: authors.elsevier.com/c/1gjL13QW8S2P…

Degrees of separation determine wren risk-taking 🐦🚧: Superb fairy-wrens are more likely to assist birds from their social circles than strangers, an international study led by @MonashBiol’s PhD candidate @Ecamerlenghi and Prof @AP_BirdBehavEco has shown: bit.ly/3YtsL9r

Does personality measured in captivity predict a bird's predator response in the wild? Congratulations to @bilby_jack on publishing his undergrad research project in @thePeerJ. This is the first in a series of fairy-wren personality papers from our lab. peerj.com/articles/14011/

Pleased to announce Paper #2 in our series on fairy-wren personality, published in 'Animal Behaviour'. Birds with extreme exploration phenotypes responded more aggressively to simulated territory intrusions. Group status & social context also important. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ft6S_4tk-tAk

The beak of a Darwin's finch, malformed by burrowing larvae of the avian vampire fly. We report on ecological consequences of early life parasitism. Thanks to the fabulous team, and artwork by PhD student Lauren Common. Paper: doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

New paper this week: KLF researchers Sonia Kleindorfer (@birdlabflinders) and Petra Sumasgutner (@pesumas), with PhD student Lauren Common (@fliesthenest), publish their findings on causes of nest mortality in the critically endangered Medium Tree Finch. mdpi.com/2673-6004/2/4/…
Lauren Common@fliesthenest

So thrilled to be involved in this paper with @BirdLabFlinders and @PeSumas on the nesting success critically endangered, Floreana Island-endemic Medium Tree Finch, published in a special issue of @Birds_MDPI mdpi.com/2673-6004/2/4/…

Sharing not such good news: Medium Tree Finch being killed by introduced predators and parasites. But, we will keep monitoring after planned predator eradication in 2023. Hopefully good news thereafter! Birds 2021, 2(4), 427-444; doi.org/10.3390/birds2…
