New paper from our lab
"Support for the fasting endurance hypothesis of partial migration in a nearshore seabird".
Hint: nearshore seabird = Brown Pelican!
Thx to @USGS & @BOEM for supporting this work.

20 years ago this week I arrived at Clemson University for my new job as Assistant Unit Leader at the SC Cooperative Research Unit. I've had great colleagues & students and am grateful for all they have taught me. And thx to the pelicans!

New paper from our lab in @conphysjournal on blood biochemistry in brown pelicans from the Gulf of Mexico. It's not all about how close they are to oil and gas activity!
Thx to my coauthors @project_pelican @YvanSatge & Christine Fiorello

It's always a treat to move a manuscript folder into a new parent folder for 'completed manuscripts'.
Great news from our colleagues in Haiti, who recently found a nest of the endangered Black-capped Petrel nest on Haiti’s Highest Peak, Pic La Selle, for the first time in over 60 years!

What is it with reviewer 2? Do they have an inferiority complex b/c they were not Reviewer 1? Did they miss the class in Reviewer school on how to provide a good review while still being polite? Seems like someone needs to do a podcast about this.
Update on survey efforts to locate breeding Black-capped Petrels on Dominica

This is a very well organized and well run twitter conference going on its 8th year. Great to see @WilsonOrnithSoc sponsoring a prize!

Just got off a call with a colleague @SCDNR. She mentioned digging into theses from our lab from several years ago to pull out details on nesting from a few different species. A great reminder of the enduring value of the work our students do and how it supports our partners.

We just learned of the passing of Dr. David Tonkyn who served on the faculty @ClemsonBioSci for many years. Dave had a positive impact on so many! He will be missed but his scientific legacy will carry on.
Teaching a 1 credit discussion style grad class using these resources next semester. New topic for me so if anyone has used these books and has suggestions or ideas I welcome them!
