- We are thrilled to announce that here at the @AnimBehSociety, we are gearing up to launch our very own @YouTube channel! We’ll use this new platform to share exciting #animal #behavior video content for use in #education, #outreach, and #research. Coming Nov 9th...!
- When I started my #phd I knew that female white-necked jacobin #hummingbirds were thought to come in two types – one that is ornamented and looks like the males, and another that is drab and looks completely different. Illustration: @JillianDitner. #ABStakeover @JJinsing
- We are deeply saddened by the loss of Julie Morand-Ferron @JMorandFerron, an avian behavioral ecologist specializing in the evolution of #cognition and an active contributor to our Society & our field. She will be greatly missed as a scientist, teacher, colleague, and friend.
- Lukhele Sifiso @lukhelembhekeni is a Ph.D. student at the University of Cyprus interested in behavioral ecology and evolution. He studies species interactions, reproductive isolation, and hybridization in Pogoniulus Tinkerbirds. #BlackInAnimalBehavior
- 🥳Congrats to Dr. Danielle Lee @DNLee5 for her distinguished teaching in #AnimalBehavior #ABSTeach! #ABS2021 Penny Bernstein Distinguished Teaching Award Recipient! @SIUE

- Kiah Williams is a PhD candidate at @Tulane University. Her research focuses on the environmental factors that affect beach-nesting bird breeding success, including the impact we humans have on their reproductive behavior #BlackInAnimalBehavior
- When studying animals it can be easy to assume that they perceive the world the same way we humans do. But it’s important to keep in mind “umwelt”, or the world as it is experienced by a particular animal. Let’s talk about how birds perceive the world. @Bird_Sock #ABStakeover 1/9
- @S_poindexterus is an asst. prof. at SUNY Buffalo. Her research interests encompass movement ecology, behavioral evolution, and conservation, with specific focus on nocturnal primates. If these topics interest you, she's recruiting! #BlackInAnimalBehavior
- Tinbergen’s four #questions still guide #behavior research today. Colin Beer describes the #history of Tinbergen’s work and its relevance to today’s work in #ethology in the latest Animal Behaviour: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
- The Animal Behavior Society is immeasurably grateful for all of the women #mentors in our field who have contributed enormously to the development of many junior scientists throughout the years. We celebrate you, and we honor you! #womeninSTEM #womeninscience
