Citizen science

I am collaborating with Project FeederWatch and its keen participants to gather data on behavioral interactions at bird feeders. We are gathering data on predation events, mobbing, and displacement (aggression). Learn more at the FeederWatch blog, enter your observations at http://bit.ly/feederwatch_interactions, and see the FeederWatch Interactions page on my site for updates of our current findings!

Aggression and species distributions

I am collaborating with Ben Freeman, Luke Harmon and Wesley Hochachka to try and tease apart the influence of interspecific aggression in shaping species' distributions. The data collected by citizen scientists from Project FeederWatch will play an instrumental role in this project!
