@evoecolab @urbanevol I can get a good deal for this rare one of an ivory-billed woodpecker. Just say when.

@urbanevol We can get you one. @TheRealVerrelli & I will set you up! It might look a little different though...

Our cool bird poop 💩 metabarcoding DNA analyses led by @slrogers27 and the @lesleybulluck lab revealed some interesting diet items 🪰🦋🐛🐚🕷 across an ever-increasing anthropogenic landscape 🤔

Our preprint on nestling PROW diet using fecal metabarcoding is out in @AmOrnith We found that nestlings have a wide diet but aquatic prey may be especially important for development, but they may be declining due to human activities. academic.oup.com/auk/advance-ar…

@hollybik Did they follow the "where one door disappears another door appears" rule???

@joelmcglothlin @evolscientist Every plot is actually a data point within a bigger plot
English
@evolscientist Agreed. There is room for 2 or maybe 3 more plots in all that white space.

@evoecolab @PetrovADmitri Now if we only had a paper out there discussing why "preadaptation" can be confusing...

@evoecolab @PetrovADmitri I think of three scenarios, with terms describing processes/units that (1) we don't fully understand like "epigenetics" and "plasticity", (2) have changed over time like "gene", (3) we understand but for which we misuse like "population", which I believe can be most confusing
English
A question for the hivemind. Which terms in biology (especially evolution, ecology, genetics) do you find slippery and confusing? Where you often feel that people use the same word but mean different things? E.g for me it’s fitness, epigenetics, niche, gene. Others?

@punished_cait Even if we leave aside the non-economic arguments: what do these people think will be the value of a business degree when the market is flooded with them?

And as luck would have it, I randomly bumped into my good friend @Dolf_DeJong in the exact place where we met 29 years ago.

In May I like to bird, butterfly and look at plants - it keeps me sane and reminds me why I got into biology. Today I did a "Big"(ish) day of birding in Presqu'ile Provincial Park. The map says it all ... 71.54km later on foot & I found 112 species. @BirdsCanada

@3rdreviewer Funny. Submission 01, Submission 02, Submission 03 magically works too.

It is unreasonably pleasing to me that folders entitled "First submission," "Second submission," and "Third submission" get ordered alphabetically.

Maybe incompetence doesn't keep people from thinking they're incompetent after all

@evolscientist I also like when a reviewer suggests the research could be improved by working with a particular author. And that author is already on the manuscript. And it wasn't a double-blind review.

@3rdreviewer I'm looking forward to when I can break out rubberbands again to keep my socks up

If I just hike up the waistband 3-4 inches, all my shorts will be back in style

@evoecolab And sometimes it just takes awhile for the superglue to wear off

@urbanevol @janecoaston Next you'll tell me The Simpsons, which started when I was in high school, is still running...
English
@janecoaston My son independently discovered Law & Order on Peacock and now he knows the day the new episodes drop LOL. It's like a little taste of the old days
English
Buddy they brought BACK Criminal Minds with a whole new plot line about how the pandemic caused serial killers to all work together?
Shawn Foss@Shawn_Foss
@janecoaston I'm curious how many people even know that Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds, Blue Bloods, and the Blacklist are all still running and releasing new episodes I feel like the average person under 60 has forgotten network TV even exists

@3rdreviewer @AlTheBoss03 Beast. Among many records, still holds most leadoff HRs, unintentional BBs, runs and of course steals...which is 50% higher than 2nd place 🤯🤯🤯

Because of $$ crunch, Uni just cancelled 1,976 Springer journals and saved $4.3M. That's just Springer. 1,976. People, that's disgusting.
