Our new Open Access paper is out today as an Early view accepted article in @molecology (Pre-typsetting etc.) - Fine-scale genetic structure reflects limited and coordinated dispersal in the colonial monk parakeet, Myiopsitta monachus. 1/

New paper out now in Animal Behaviour! We show support for natal habitat preference induction in an invasive parakeet species. It's open access so take a look sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

NEW PAPER! Juvenile Monk parakeets that are born in pine trees look for pine trees to build their first nests, and those that are born in palm trees look for palm trees. The choice of breeding substrate therefore seems to be marked by cultural aspects. doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.20…
Passed my PhD Viva on Friday! Many thanks to my examiners for a great viva, and to everyone for a lovely celebratory weekend!
Special thanks to @lucyannewinder for a fantastic viva cake!

Great to see this in print! Well done to everyone for their hard work.
Out in print: our @BehavEcol paper on how reduced visual & auditory information-gathering affects responses to heterospecific alarm calls. #FieldExperiments #AustralianMagpies With: Chaminda Ratnayake, You Zhou, @FrancescaDP12 @silvereyedoc & Rob Magrath

Check out our new paper in @ScienceMagazine on the emergence and spread of a new "urban culture" in sulphur-crested cockatoos!
Led by @DrBarbaraKlump with @Wingtags, @NoisyMajor @wild_sonja, data based on invaluable contributions from citizen-scientists:

Our new @BehavEcol paper on how visual obstructions & traffic noise affect reliance on social information from other species is out.😀 Experiments with Australian magpies. Great work Chaminda Ratnayake, You Zhou, @FrancescaDP12 @silvereyedoc & Rob Magrath. doi.org/10.1093/beheco/arab0…
New paper out now! This one has been a long time in the making. We show that a reduction of personal information caused by a visual obstruction results in an increased reliance on heterospecific alarm calls. However, traffic noise does not affect responses

Well done to all co-authors for some amazing experimental work and a great paper! Chaminda Ratnayake, You Zhou, @silvereyedoc, @Dwarf_Mongoose and Rob Magrath

When it comes to social networks; it’s not “who you are”, it’s “where you are”! 🦌
New @Ecology_Letters paper disentangles the underpinnings of individuals' social metrics data using @RumDeerResearch's long-term data & @gfalbery's fancy INLA models

We then investigated the demographic mechanisms driving the observed structure - We provide evidence for high adult site fidelity in combination with limited natal dispersal, some philopatry and coordinated dispersal of siblings 5.
