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
ALT Two white guys standing in front of a card table that is crowded with bird banding supplies. One guy is holding a bird and the other is pointing to a datasheet on which measurements from the bird will be entered. Judging from their hats, the guy with the bird has been to Ireland at some point, and the tall guy is a Milwaukee Brewers fan. Photo by Clay Billman.

A new study suggests the time plants turn green is coming earlier in the spring than past averages - but migratory birds are not following suit.

Bird collisions are something we can reduce but we don't. Our Opinion piece is simple: Enforce the Migratory Bird Treaty Act - Now! w/Andrew Farnsworth & @Kyle__Horton #LightsOut

doi.org/10.1002/wlb3.01132 interested in #shorebirds? Check out this OA in @WildlifeBiol. I'm proud of this one as it's my 3rd dissertation chapter and 5th pub from my PhD. Special thanks to @DaveLonde for the help finishing it up and @LossLabOSU for advising and sticking with me!

OSU Installs Bird-Friendly Window Tint!
Dots placed 2" apart makes glass visible to birds & has been shown to reduce collisions by up to 70% in some cases.
Hear Dr. Tim O'Connell & Dr. Scott Loss share with Oklahoma's News 4 youtu.be/VpzwV7JdXtw

Lab received first @NSF 🎉🎊🍾collaborating @LuZhai_Ecology @LossLabOSU & Adrian Lam! We will develop mathematical models to gain mechanistic understanding of how migratory animals determine their routes and timing in response to climate change!
We will hire a two years Postdoc!

We are incredibly appreciative for the NC State Sustainability Fund for allowing us to apply bird deterrent films on bus shelters at NSCU. More updates on the project will be posted soon! #birdwindowcollisions #citybird #MakeWindowsBirdSafe

🗣️1 simple action to tell your friends about: #LightsOutTexas 11:00 PM - 6:00 AM thru June 15th for the 1 billion migratory birds making their way through our state this Spring!
Can we count you in?

How #CitizenScience can help unveiling and solving conservation problem? Here is our paper led by Dr. Loss on bird window collisions. Our new but rapidly growing China Anti-Bird Collision Action Alliance fill in the gap for the areas outside North America
I'm excited to share our new review paper in @ESAFrontiers showcasing how #CitizenScience programs around the world are advancing science, education & policy on the global issue of bird-window collisions!
